3.5.0 Impex

[TTG]

Will be able to use impex to transfer members, threads, posts etc from 3.0.6 /7 to the upcoming 3.5.0 ?

I have too many hacks to be able to run any upgrade script

Yes.

whats the difference between 3.5.0 Impex and the normal upgrade script?

Impex allows you to create a fresh database and then use impex to import only the items you want adding.

Running the upgrade script with a lot of hacks on a board can be a real headache removing all hacks and then re-installing.

thanks I might give this a try once version 3.5 comes out, as I have a lot of tables left over in my database from hacks
