Hi everyone,
I have a site running VB 3.7.1 and I want to upgread it to 3.8.xx, however I have quite a few mods and the site also used vbseo, so I want to do the uprgade on a test site first.

The site is somedomain.com/forums and I have created the test site at somedomain.com/forums2

I made a full copy of the directories and files and have created a new database, which is a copy of the original one with different user and login details and I have updated the test site config.php file accordingly. I have also updated the Site Name / URL in admicp.

The site works, most of the links point to the old site. What else do I need to do to make this use the test site and database?

Search your templates for full URL's and change them to new folder name.
