Installation:


Standard, Basic or Advanced URLs:

1. Upload contents of standard-basic-advanced/upload folder to your forum root.
2. If your URLs are not working, follow these instructions: http://xenforo.com/help/import-redirection/
3. If you are using nginx and Advanced mode URLs, you may need the following rewrites:
   Code:
   rewrite ^/showthread.php /showthread.php;
   rewrite ^/forumdisplay.php /forumdisplay.php;

Mod_Rewrite URLs:

1. Upload contents of standard-basic-advanced/upload folder to your forum root.
2. If your old rewrite rules are still in place, your URLs may work at this stage. If not, continue to install a route-based alternative: (and be sure to disable any remaining vB4 rewrite rules as they may interfere with the routes)
3. Upload contents of mod_rewrite/upload folder to your forum root.
4. Install the addon XML file mod_rewrite/addon_vB4Redir.xml
5. If your URLs are not working, follow these instructions: http://xenforo.com/help/import-redirection/

(Optional) Change of directory:

Follow these instructions if you wish to also change your forum directory when moving from vBulletin. A basic understanding of rewrite rules is required - these are just examples. To specify the root directory, swap out /old-dir/ or /new-dir/ for /
