Default Will Upgrading Ruin My Template??

I have this forum: http://midego.com/forums/

It is running v3.7.0 rc2. I need to update it to 3.7.5

Will running the vb upgrade procedure mess up the template site's around the vb forum?

Is so what can I do to ether prevent or recover the template?

thanks,
J

First, You should always keep a backup for everything on your site including the styles in case of anything happening.
Second it should not mess up your templates, if there are any changes to templates from the versions it will notify you and you will have to manually make the changes.

It won't mess up the look of your forum if you upgrade. But you will need to manually update your custom templates by comparing the changes within your Style Manager. Fortunately, much of your forum has been customized using CSS, so there are only a handful of templates that actually need to be edited (HEADER, FOOTER and NAVBAR, really..)
