My b2evolution Version: 1.9.x
I'm wondering if there is any way to have my existing Invision Power Board member database be used for the b2 database.
I already have an active forum but people are asking for the site to expand to feature news and reviews rather than a simple forum portal.
I would like for people to be able to submit content and post comments using their current forum usernames to save multiple sign-up/logins.
Is this at all possible? Maybe for cash?

If you just wanted to add your current membership to the evo users table then you could achieve this by creating a user (in b2evo user table) for every user in your current database.
If you wanted to tie it in with new user registrations etc then you'd need to do a smidge of hacking (probaby to both cores)
Alternatively you could possibly use a similar process to the ldap plugin to create your users on the fly (theres a huge post on these forums somewhere about ldap and forum logins, but I don't have the link to hand)
