my hosting now is offering free installation of 1.1.5 . Will I be able to upgrade to 2.0 later on?
thanks

You should actually install 1.1.6 instead of 1.1.5 as there are some security bugs fixed. 2.0 is still in beta so it isn't a stable release.

You can always upgrade to 2.0 whenever you want even if it's a beta release.

I just sign up and it offered to upgrade free.
Forum version: SMF 1.1.6 is what I have now
So that was cool!
but I got another question lol I need to play with this for a while and figure it out for my self before I ask.

My host offers unlimited subdomains, I have a regular website, that I'm working on content for. I created a subdomain for the forum, downloaded SMF through the host (it was the same as yours 1.1.5) and it gave me the alert to upgrade to 1.1.6. I created a subdomain to test this out, I want to mess around with it before I transfer it to my forum server. That'll be fun. You'll just need an FTP client, I used filezilla, its a really easy interface. You just download the beta here http://www.simplemachines.org/download/ and upload it with your ftp. Theres instructions here http://docs.simplemachines.org/index.php?board=2.0;sort=subject that explains it really well. I found out my host doesn't allow 777 chmod so I had to use 755 on the files it says to use. You can check out hxxp:forum.simbergusa.com [nonactive] for 1.1.6 and compare to hxxp:smfbeta.simbergusa.com/smf [nonactive] (I havn't set up a redirect yet)
