I am using the old Invision 1.2 board. and I would like to upgrade to the newer version of Invision. Is it possible to move all my info, members and personal info, post, Topics, without having to start over? <br />Would I have to upload a new version of invision to the server myself and how would I do that? <br />Is this possible to do and is it worth trying to do?<br />Some good advice would be helpful.<!--content-->
1.2 is the last free version and is your cpanel<br /><br />to upgrade you will need to purchse 2.0 from the vendor (IPB)<br />it will come with install instructions and upgrade information.<br /><br />Sorry I can't help you as I will not buy it.<!--content-->
As Don says, the new version is no longer free. <br /><br />I believe that you can get the Invision people to install it for you for a fee if you are unable to do it yourself.<!--content-->
thanks for the response. I will look into Invision. If I choose to upgrade, Is it possible to transfer all my info, members and personal info, post, Topics, without having to start over? Thanks<!--content-->
1.3.1 was the last free version and either used the same database or had an upgrade script with it. I believe 1.3.1 is offered in cPanel.<!--content-->
I would imagine you could. It would be quite a bad move for them if they didn't allow some upgrade path.<br /><br />Second I am sure that they will migrate since this forum used to be version 1.3Final before version 2 came out. And nobody had to resubscribe and no posts were lost.<!--content-->
I do believe they offer a trial version of 2 on their website with but you are supposed to stop using it after 30 days or pay for it <img src="http://www.totalchoicehosting.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="
