Shut down forum. BACKUP FORUM, especially the DATABASE. Disable hacks. Upload files over writing your current files. Run Script. Revert Templates, and fix them. Re-Enable/Install 3.6 version of your hacks one by one to make sure everything looks good along the way. Somewhere in there after you have ran the upgrade script you can open your forums again. If you decide to go for this, good luck. It's easy, and unlikely you will run into any problems as far as I have experienced. |
