I am contemplating starting a new site with a vB on it. My current site has about 8 or 9 hacks on it. How easy would it be to just download my current site and upload it on my new server so that I don't have to reinstall all the hacks? (Naturally, I would purchase a second vB license first.)

I assume I would have to upload and run the install php for the board and any hacks...

What would be the easiest way to transfer the templates so that I could just modify them on the new site?

I think it would be pretty easy. Just copy the php files over and also the database changes for the hacks too.

To transfer templates use Chen's Template Backup System.

Thanks.

The directory structure on the new server will be different. I'm assuming that won't be a problem because all of the paths are defined by the install script, correct?

Can anyone confirm my assumption about the directory structure?

The process is similar for moving a hacked board, just remember if you want to run another copy of your forums you'll need to get a second license.

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