Hello,

I am running a forum on mybb. I am a student so cant afford much money. Can anyone install discourse on digital ocean and import all the data from mybb?

I can pay $10 for this via PAYPAL.

Thank you.  
Discourse is best I liked it very much..

So far I’ve installed the Discourse Docker image, launched a local MySQL server and populated it with the data from MyBB. The [migration script](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/blob/master/script/import_scripts/mybb.rb) only says it should be called like this: RAILS\_ENV=production bundle exec ruby script/import\_scripts/mybb.rb That assumes you have cloned the discourse repo itself (not the Docker).
