Hi All,

When I upgrade from 3.8.2 to 3.8.3 I need some help and information

1. I have many plugins/Add-ons on my forum, ... do I need to disable them first...?

2. Do I need to close forum when I am upgrading forum

3. Do I need to Edit the Config.php....what about the old ?

4. I have so many Template modifications what about that...?

Please tell me about that I am going to Upgrade my forum....

just turn it off, upload all the files, go to the upgrade link, click it, let it run... then turn your board on.

going from 3.8.2 to 3.8.3 shouldnt affect your mods or templates.

Hopefully you have a test board, do it there first, if all goes well, wait until late at night and repeat the steps on your live board.

and what about the replace files...
Do I need to replace these all files they want to replace in uploading...?

Note that if any of your mods required manual editing to the php files then you'll have to do that again.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
