Hi there I am currently using vb 3.5.0 and I wanted to know something.

If i upgraded will all my products that I have installed still be there after the upgrade.

Obviously the file edits I have done will not.

Also do I have to upgrade to 3.5.1 then to 3.5.2 or can I just upgrade from 3.5.0 to 3.5.2

And is it even worth upgrading to 3.5.2

Thanks

If upgrade is worth it is not the question.
Upgrading is a must, as versions < 3.5.2 have a serious security issue.

At vbulletin site you can download a patch that will fix the security issues with 3.5.0 and 3.5.1 until you feel comfortable doing the upgrade. The patch is posted in the same thread as the release announcement. It consist of 2 files that you upload into your includes directory.

Upload the 3.5.2 files and run /install/upgrade.php The upgrade script will take you through 3.5.1 to 3.5.2
