It's time to convert: IPS 4.3.6 to the latest XenForoHere's what I would like to do:Convert an IPS 4.3.6 powered site to XenForo. Here's what I am thinking:Build a total clone of the IPS site and convert that site to XenForo. Once that's working and successful, take those files and database and move it to the actual URL / place, where it will be (same server). This way, there's not a lot of down time and if I screw the conversion up, I can try again....and maybe again...although hopefully it all goes smooth the first time. The database is about 2 gigs in size, MySQL 5.5.6 and PHP 8+• Does XenForo allow a test installation URL / subdomain, etc.? I plan and making the conversion myself.• What's the best path forward?
