Yes, you can. You will need to upgrade your UBB.classic board to 6.7.2 (the current version) first, though. It has an import/export feature that will export your data (users, categories, forums, and posts) to files. After setting up your UBB.threads board, you will then use the files that you created to import the content into your UBB.threads board.

You can find the details on in the UBB.threads Admin Guide.

If you do not have a current subscription to the Members Area for your UBB.classic license (to download version 6.7.2), we can provide the files to you.

Whilst, I can't help you with the files (you might want to put in a support ticket giving a link to this thread), reading another post here on the import to 6.5, you would be better waiting until 6.5.1 comes out.

Fp, one of the problems I had when upgrading from Classic was that certain users were being omitted by the importer. Turns out that some people had the same display name, and this caused the module to bring over only one of them.

The demo version can not import content - you must purchase a license / convert your Classic license before any importing can take place.
