Okay, I tried searching the forums, but kept coming up with results for moving from a non-vb forum to a vb forum.
My issue is this. I'm planning on "re-launching" my site within a month or so. I've created a "testvb" password protected directory, as per the vb terms. I want to re-design my forums, styles, test out some modifications and such.
What I'd like to do is just copy my members data from my current forum setup to the test server. That way the users and their passwords are transferred to the new database. Ideally, my plan is to get the test forum setup and working completely how I want it to, then delete the old forum and move the test/new forum where the old one was on the server.
Hopefully I explained that coherently enough.
If anyone can point me to a manual or whatnot that can explain to me how to do this (if possible) I would greatly appreciate it.
Thank you in advance!
