When you talk about restoring, were you uploading old files or were you restoring a database ? I did a restore of the database backup This is where i am now: The forum is now on 3.0.7pl1 What did you do to get from a board that said it was 3.0.4 to being 3.0.7-PL1? When it showed it was back on 3.0...

Hi Kevin, I will do my best to explain what happened The update procedure we've talked you through does not remove any posts from the database. Somehow i lost the images file and i don't know how as i made sure to be careful i never deleted it so i am now uploading the one from the upgrade pack. One...

Hi Steve, Its been one hell of a day. With a lot of support from the mchat's creator i have managed to get it up and running and have the forum on the upgraded version. However i am now have to do damage control. Somehow i lost the images file and i don't know how as i made sure to be careful i neve...

Hi Kevin

You'll be pleased to know i was successful my forum is now all up to date (if we had a dancing smilie it would be here)

Things i noticed - I have lost my sites logo from the top and not sure how to put that back
and is there a version of mcat that works with 3.0.7pl1?

Good morning guys
Right i'm about over halfway through doing the complete upgrade of the forum but i have one question.

I have left all files that i was told to and replaced the others but what about /develop and /umil? these don't seem to be in the new version file

Hi not sure if i've put this in the right forum section so Moderators please feel free to move :D My forum has been running on phpBB 3.0.4 and i am about to do a complete upload of 3.0.7pl1. As it is i have the mchat on the forum which we all enjoy but will it work on the 3.0.7pl1? Thought i'd check...

I will give you an update as soon as i'm done and hopefully make you all proud

... and got the new files on the server ready to start swaping over. ... I don't understand what you are saying here. If you do exactly as Kevin describes, it will update your board in one go. Your users and posts are not in danger. They are stored in the database, which is entirely seperate to the...

Well i have now downloaded a FTP to use and got the new files on the server ready to start swaping over. Little bit nervous about doing this incase i loose my whole forum :? Whats the easiest way to swap the files over? Should i move the install folder in first? Can i use the FTP to move the folders...

Oh sorry forgot to mention that it is a private forum the topics you can see on the initial page are the only ones locked

Yes i have mchat and automod the others don't work now as they aren't for this version.

I see what you mean now. I don't think you can access my files on the server this way. My forum files are stored on One.com's server. I've checked the file you said and it does seem to be in there. I do apologise if i'm not understanding you right or making what i say clear. i am a beginner with all...

I am really pleased with myself as i have successfully upgraded my forum to the latest version :D ... How exactly did you do this update? The CHANGELOG.html file in your docs folder is from version 3.0.4. If that file is out of date, others may be as well. I downloaded the file 3.0.4-3.0.7 PL1 and ...

Ok i've checked all the files i uploaded and quickreply_editor.html is in styles/prosilver/templates

do i need to refresh the template and theme at all?
