My forum needs upgrading to 3.2 (or lower) from 3.0.12 - I haven't done this for a few years - will it be a problem with a forum with quite a few MODS?

Upgrading is relatively easy if your database isn't too large (600 MB shouldn't cause any problems 3.0.12 > 3.2.1).
There is a caveat: all the mods will have to be removed completely (from the database) before attempting the upgrade. This implies removing all non default tables, all non default collumns and also all non default table entries (e.g. permissions not presenst in vanilla 3.0.12)
Best way to do this is to test the upgrade on a backup on localhost (or on a parallel site).
And just in case: take a backup before starting the definitive upgrade (do not challenge Murphy )

These are the MODS I have installed (is there a way to embed these photos within this forum?)
