How easy to go back ??
glennk:
Ive been on smf 2 for about a week now. I have realised I have made a rather big mistake. My forum is littered with missing posts. On this board, every topic has the first post missing.

On many topics across the forum posts are missing at random. THis is really freaking me out now and I fear I might have lost years of hard work.
How easy would it be for me to go back over ??

If you made a backup before you upgraded to 2.0, then it would be easy to roll back tot he 1.1.7. Only thing, you will loose one week''s posts (i.e. all the posts that were made in the 2.0)
If you don''t have a backup, then you can still roll back to the 1.1.7 by manually altering the db tables. But that is a very difficult and long task.

In that case, you can restore the backup but the last week topics/posts/new members that were acquired in the 2.0 will be lost.
