HI Guys,
I have always paid someone to do the upgrades for me.
I can no longer afford to do this, so I will have to do it myself.
The last person to upgrade the forum for me, Put a "Test forum" and a "Live forum" on there for me, I would chose between the two (to view) from the drop down menu.
How would I be able to change the both of them please?
There are areas of the Live forum that I do not want changed (ie Smilies) so I have removed that foilder so that it doesn't overwrite my custom smilies. That's right, Isn't it?
I would then need to do an upgrade on the test forum, Yes? with All the files, None removed for this, Correct?
How exactly, in Laymans terms, would I do that please?
Many Thanks.
PS. I will be backing up the forum database BEFORE doing anything.
