I have a quick question...

If I want to upgrade from 3.5.3, to 3.5.4, and I use these instructions:

http://www.vbulletin.com/docs/html/main/run_upgrade

Will my modified templates get blown away?

Does anyone have instructions for updating vbulletin, so the data and mods aren't effected?

Sorry if its a silly question, thx

No your templates will be fine. Upload all the new files and run /install/upgrade.php

I just did it for a friend. 3 minutes.

You may have to revert some templates if you want all of vBulletins features to work correctly though.

There's a nice compare feature that lets you compare the differences between the new template, and your modified one.. so you can remake any changes easily.

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