Thank you. I have located and downloaded vBulletin 5 Connect. I then found these installation instructions:
http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/forum...ll-vbulletin-5
I was able to talk with the person within our company who created this forum and he said he started it with version 5.X. I am thinking it is safe to assume that I do not need to worry about overwriting 4.X files and having the installation fail.
However, I have the vb5 folder unzipped and saved to my desktop and now I have no idea what to do with it. I opened the zip folder and copied the 'upload' folder and put the 'upload' folder in it's own folder like step 4 on the above steps say to do. After that...I am clueless.
The zipped folder contents that I got from the download are:
do_not_upload
upload
index.html
license_agreement.html
vb5readme.html
vb5liesmich.html
QuickStartGuide_German.pdf
QuickStartGuide.pdf
The "upload" folder has been copied and placed in it's own folder as well. That is as far as I can make it. I do not know what files I am supposed to rename. I do not know how to go to the install directory of core in my browser.
If there is any more help that you may offer I am very grateful to hear your advice for what I do next. Or, if there is another avenue that I may take in order to get this resolved?
Thank you,
Amanda
