[solved] Switching from Forums Pro?

I am running Forums Pro and have liked it. How ever Forum Pro is no longer being working on and I am looking at switching to Forums Plus.

Does Forums Plus import the messages from Forum Pro?

I'm afraid not but there are a couple of sticky topics on the DF site that should help you:

ForumsPro was being worked on, until April, when Rayvenhaus decided to resume the ownership that he had previously abandoned. Nothing has happened since he did that and I have no intention of getting involved with ForumsPro again.

However, ForumsPlus covers the key extra features, without the bugs and search issues with ForumsPro.

With the added bonus of a proven developer who has demonstrated long term commitment to DF ..... IMHO!

Is it possible to run Forums Pro and Forums Plus on the same site so I can test it and see if I want to make the change?

I see one big difference already by posting here, the POSTED date and time uses the server time not the users time zone

You posted here at 9:06 am, your time.
Your tz is -6
My tz is +10
You posted 4 hours 40 mins ago.
That makes a difference of 20 hours to my time.
My current time is 05:46.

(and we both have 0 DST).

I just posted at 1:48pm your time - mine is 05:48am - difference is 16 hours which is correct.
