I effed up my forums nicely, instead of upgrade.php I ran install.php. I have a database backup from a week or so ago. I uploaded it to my root folder via FTP, imported it via phpmyadmin, yet my forums are still the same as if I just installed vbulletin. Any suggestions guys?

I'm quite new to MySQL, and vbulletin as well, hense the way I was able to mess up when upgrading lol.

Try dropping the current database (after running a backup) and then reimport. If needed you might need to put in the file, where it says something like:

USE <yourdatabasename>;

Add above it:

CREATE DATABASE <what is below>;

That's how I worked it on my old forum site when we moved from a Yahoo server to a dedicated.
