Hi there,
I used to be the admin for a forum a few years ago. Just recently I have returned to being the admin again, and I have a small dilemma.
The previous admin installed a large amount of hacks and plugins. (Arcade, social groups, etc.) I'd like to restore the forum to a more basic, clean version of VB - pretty much start over.
Can I simply backup the current database and restore to a new vbulletin installation? Will I have issues doing this?
Or is there a simple way to backup just the post's and member info? (statistic's, post count etc?)
I'm lost, any help would be greatly appreciated.
