Hello Eblah community!
I use an eblah forum for my business web site and it has been great, but on expanding my business I am having to move to a Microsoft server, which means I will no longer have a forum.

So, just trying to find out what my options are please? I see there is an SQL version that I presume runs on an MS server, if it does, is it possible to transfer the users and content over to this?

Or do I simply have to retain some web space on the old server to keep the forum running?

Cheers

You can use E-Blah with a MS server, but the SQL version doesn't mean it's for MS servers.  You'll need MySQL installed for it to work.


I do installs for $25 and upgrades for $20.

So would it be easy enough to transfer my existing forum to the new dedicated MS server?

No, it wouldn't be too hard.  You've just got to change the permissions and all if you are using IIS.  MS Server DOES NOT equal MS-SQL server though though.
