WE did succeed.  Not "I", but "we".  Go check out the Bullnose Forum on InVision.

The folks at InVision know their stuff.  They'd not migrated anyone from Nabble before, but they knew what needed to be done and took Pass 1 at it.  That we very close but there were a couple of things and they fixed them quickly.  Then after the migration we spotted a couple more things and they fixed them as well.

So we are migrated and loving it.  We have all of our old posts, including pictures and links, and even our own emoticons.

As for the old forum, it may be running but we can't log into it because of the way we set up the DNS.  I'm waiting until Nabble says it'll be deleted and then we'll let it go.  There's apparently nothing there we need.

The pluses are many.  For one, we got the joining process automated so people are required to create a signature and post an introduction before then can post elsewhere.  Works a treat.

And posting pictures is sooooo much easier!  We used to have to train newbies for weeks after joining.  Now we have no complaints.

Plus the messaging system works.

The only downside is cost, and the members are supporting it.
