Simply export the db from that of the live forum and import it at that of your test forum.

it doesn''t matter, after you import the db, then run the upgrader so it can bring it up to date (db)

Yes, I believe you can use Impex to merge 2 vb forums.

Well, i tried that and it didn't work at all! Now i can't access ACP, since cookies are with different values and when updated the new version, it froze on step 8
I guess i will have to copy/paste each post and redirect newest member to new version site to re-register!
Tks anyway

What exactly did you try?

P.s. it would be best if you didn''t hijack the thread for the OP but instead start a new thread with your forum issues

What was the error you got during the upgrade?

But I think all the questions related to vb core related issues should be asked over at vb.com forum.
