I want to update to the latest version of the Snitz forum, but I don't want to lose everything (posts, moderators etc)
If possible can someone explain how to back up the messageboard (I'm still knew to this) I would greatly appreciate it!
Thank you in Advanced!

Did you install the original forum, or did somebody else?
reason I ask is; if they installed any modifications/addons you may need to upgrade them as well |

I'll reach an agreement with you, since it does look that it was some kind of development company that setup your forum. I'll help you setup the new version and that version will include the copyrights.
Start by doing what Podge recommended above, by checking the config.asp file. |
