i search the boards, and found some similar posts, but none with any real guidance.

i have an active forum site using v1.1.5 and am developing a new version 1.1.7 of the site in a dev directory. I want to import users, user profiles, user posts and most of my configurations from 1.1.5.
is there a way to do this?

thanks in advance.

yes
please make a copy of your active forum (1.1.5)
make a new database and imorte your active database tables on it
upload and run repair_settings.php (look at my sign)
upload large upgrade on it and run upgrade.php
Done

openinteractive

is "large upgrade" another utility file?
or jsut use the standard upgrade.php?

sherpa サイバー侍

it is just a standard upgrade but better if you jumping the version

openinteractive

thanks
