New Installations

Updating your IPB

If you're updating your IPB, then please do the following:
  • UPGRADING FROM IPB 1.1, 1.2 or 1.3(.1)? READ ME INSTEAD!
  • Upload all the files contained in the "upload" folder of the download distribution EXCEPT conf_global.php. Don't forget to update files such as "ipb_templates.xml", "index.php", "admin.php" and the "upgrade" folders.
  • Run the upgrade system by accessing "upgrade/index.php" on your system (for example: www.domain.com/forum/upgrade/index.php) this will determine which upgrade modules need to be run and will rebuild your templates for you.
