Importing attachments from vbulletin, porter mentions rename plugin which doesn't exist
From the vanilla2export.php file, line 1883:
I've looked around github and googled and read all the related docs but can't find any mention of this "custom plugin" except this comment. Any chance it's more than a myth buried within some source code?
As a side note, I'm impressed how far Vanilla has come since I last checked it out 5 years ago, really amazed, I'm glad I finally have the chance to use it and can get rid of my really bloated vB installation! Thanks for your help guys
* In vBulletin 2.x, files were stored as an md5 hash in the root
* attachment directory with a '.file' extension. Existing files were not
* changed when upgrading to 3.x so older forums will need those too.
*
* This assumes the user is going to copy their entire attachments directory
* into Vanilla's /uploads folder and then use our custom plugin to convert
* file extensions.
