Moving from Icyboards.
#1
Hi Jon,

I currently run a forum over on Icyboards and after seeing your offer here to import Icyboards forums over to CreateMyBB I will be seriously considering the offer. I do have a few questions though.

1. Is it possible to give us an ETA on when the import will be available?

2. Will we be able to add our own smilies to our forums?

3. Will we be able to edit the themes and templates on our forums? With this one I just need to be able to change the board logo on the default theme.

4. Will we be able to use custom domains?

1. I can import forums now. Just signup and create a forum here. Then send over the sql file.

2. I will look into that right now I have one global set of smilies

3. Possibly this is the one hard part for me.

4. Yes

Thanks for the reply, Jon. I was cosnidering moving my forum over to Jcink, but I'd much rather stay with a MyBB hosted forum as I know my way around the Admin CP.

Will my users need to reset their passwords after the import or will they be carried over with the database?

One last question for now.

Will I need to deactivate all the plugins on my Icyboards forum before backing up and exporting the database?

Passwords will be imported fine.

I don't believe you need to disable your plguins.

Being able to edit templates is critical to me too.

Thanks, Jon. I'll probably be making the jump in the next few days.

With regards to the forum logo I'm hoping that will come over as part of the database import.

Custom domains now supported.
Importing custom templates and editing themes now supported.
And added the page manager plugin.

Jon,

I have created a test board (https://bbbtest.createmybb3.com/) and I don't see the Page Manager plugin or have the ability to edit templates. Is this only for newly created forums?

Also, do you have an image directory that we can FTP to?
