Starting over on the forum
(1/1)
Jump1979man:
If I wanted to start fresh with a clean install of my forum but still use my old database, how would I go about doing this?
The reason I am wanting to do this is because some of the mods I currently have will not allow me to install TinyPortal.
So I am wanting to start over brand new with RC2 and then install TP first thing.
I do not want to lose any user data however.
Thanks for the help.
SMFHacks:
I would first back all your files.
Then simply upload SMF 1.1 RC2 over your old files except settings.php which contains the database login information.

So settings.php is all I would need to keep?
And that would allow all the posts and user info to be transferred to the fresh install?
SMFHacks:
I would also keep the attachments folder.
Jump1979man:
yeah, it worked. Thanks for the help.
