    move only members from 3.5 to 3.6

    I have a board running 3.5.0 that has alot of modifications. I want to start fresh again on 3.6.4. Is it possible to backup the forum settings, members, posts & attachments only not all the modifications done to templetes, files etc

    many thanks

      Simply upgrade to 3.6.1 and disable all plugins.....as long as major database changes haven't been made, that should do what you need.

      You might end up with some redundant database tables but in most cases that shouldn't be an issue.

        How about color settings? If I have edited my color and template settings instead of installing a new style will those stay during and upgrade?

        Thanks,
