If you move the forum to a new directory, you need to change some of your settings in your Admin CP. vboptions > General Settings/URL/whatever needs to be changes along with all your image paths and attachement/avatar/profile paths if they are stored in the file system.

so i will have to do all these changes before i move it to the new folder

yes you have to do these changes, and if you where installing vb advanced you have to change the paths also

i will be installing vba once ive got the forum into a new folder

ive just tried this on my test forum and getting this errer wen i tried to upgrade to new vb

To troubleshoot this, please remove any hacks and disable your plugins, then see if you still have this problem.
Note: To temporarily disable the plugin system, edit config.php and add this line right under <?php

define('DISABLE_HOOKS', true);

If so, reupload all the original vB non-image files (except install.php). Make sure you upload these in ASCII format and overwrite the ones on the server.

You might need to run the upgrade.php script again to ensure it completes without errors.

i got it to work but wen i installed vba i lost a lot of pics i dont think the style is compatible with vba
