Getting a fresh start from 3.0.3 with vB 3.5
 

Hi,

I've been running vB 3.0.3 for quite some time and have since installed and uninstalled a heap of modifications and hacks. As a result, my MySQL db has a heap of unneccessary columns and tables remaining, and it's probably just by pure luck that vB still functions.

If I installed vB 3.5 and imported my 3.0.3 database, will it ONLY import all the official vB data?

I'd like to get a fresh start with 3.5 with no hacks or mods to start off with and a clean database.

Thanks!

Thanks for your automated reply, but the reason why I'm asking this question is to determine whether or not it's worth renewing my recently expired license to buy vB 3.5. Otherwise I've been considering going to IPB instead.

This is the Pre-Sales Questions forum, isn't it?

You can use ImpEx to create a new database mostly cleaned from hack data.
