Ive looked around and cant seem to find anything.

I have a board thats been around for years and over that time its been upgraded from ubb to phpbb to vbb and then several vbb upgrades and I added a portal.

I want to install a fresh copy of vbb and put all my users/posts/ext back into the new vbb. However after all the hacks and edits over the years my database is pretty mangaled. I want to keep everything but remove anything in the database that insnt suposed to be there. I dont want to have 4,000+ members re-register.

Anyone know what I mean?

Thanks in advance,
sk

in your forums admin's cp, backup the database, then in your site's control panel create a new database and upload your mysql backup

Well i want the actual tables of the database brought back to stock. Over the years new fields have been added in the tables and so on. I want to keep my current data but remove all new fields from tables in the database.

For example some hacks modify a table in the database - i need somthing to remove it and take out all those new fields that have been added over time.

This is hard to explain sorry.

download the DB sheme of vb in the membersarea, and then got through the tables with phpmyadmin and delete all unneeded field

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