    Is there anyway to temporarily change the domain for vbseo?

    By domain, I mean the domain which the product is registered to?

    I want to move my main forum to a windows based hosting solution, but I'm unsure if it'll work with IIS7/Plesk, so need a way to test it first

    But I can't setup the forum on another, spare domain, as VBSeo stops working because the license is invalid for that domain.

    Any suggestions?

    vbseo works on iis7. We supply a web.config file for the rewrites.

    We do offer a test licese, but it must follow the same rules as vB's test licenses. It should not be publicly accessible.

    If you would like a test license, please open a ticket asking for one.

    Thanks Brian, decided to make the switch and it seems to work ok
    IIS imported the htaccess file ok
    I assume htaccess is ok to use? or should I use the web.config file?

    i'm not sure how the import process works... i have limited experience with windows servers.
    If it created a web.config file from the htaccess, great! are your re-writes working?
