Due to hosting limitations I can't backup my forum via SSH. Using phpmyadmin I've moved my database to a new host (except for my large post table) and everything appears to be working. All that remains is moving over the most recent posts threads members, etc.

If I have my database structure complete on the new host, what tables do I need to download from my old host and re-upload to the new one in order to have my forum functional? I assume vb_post and vb_users are the most important, but what others am I missing? I'm hoping to avoid having to close my forum and then download and re-upload all the tables.

Thanks!

all the content of the database is used to manage your users and forum activity... there is nothing useless there... so you need to move everything.
