So, yeah. My boards are at 3.5.4 at the moment, and I am thinking of upgrading. But I have a few addons, and I wonder if they will still be compatible. Namely Logician's Web Templates. I don't want to upgrade if they are no longer going to function, as I don't want the hassle of trying to fix it or install new addons.

And if it did go wrong, is it possible to reverse the upgrade back to 3.5.4?

Thanks,
Davey.

Hmm I would just test it on another server, its allowed to run a "development only" copy of vbulletin on your own server for example, it's quite easy to setup on windows with a xampp server for instance (free). Then you can test anything you want without the risk of destroying your active forum.

From what I have read on some threads, Logician's product works on vB3.6.x.

I can confirm that as a Logican's Web Template user on 3.6.8 PL2. I have never had any problems with it. However, I installed it fresh on 3.6.8, not part of any upgrade.

Davey, you may wish to ask Logican directly about any known issues with an upgrade like this. I don't remember seeing anything in the product thread though.

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