The most important ones that I do not want to lose are these:

* Smilies
* Broadcast Email
* Arcade Mod
* captchabox
* PunToolBar
* Actual Posts
* BB Spam Fighter
* Adsense Options

So I wouldn't upgrade if I won't keep the puntoolbar, captchabox and the arcade, among others.

What do you suggest?

(Thanks again)

There are extensions for PunBB 1.3. Try to post the list of mods, maybe someone will advise you similar extensions.

If I give up on the plugins and mods, are there other versions of them that I should install to be compatible with 1.3?

Thank you for replying.

I see in the wiki page that the only things to keep are: old config.php and img/avatars dir.

What about the plugins folder? What does it become?

Please, read the wiki article on upgrade.

The most important thing: do not forget to make a database backup.

I actually meant by sub forums just the forums that are within the general one.

Anyways, I still can't find how I can upgrade from 1.2.17 to 1.3.3. Any hints please?

Thanks.

For the first problem, I would look into making sure that the row in the database is correct, check to make sure it has a parent Id?

And at the moment there is no extension for subforums for 1.3, so you woudlnt have this option.

I doubt if there is a sub forum feature with pun1.2,if you are with "sub forum" modification or plugin,i didn't suggest you uprade 1.3

Hello everyone,

I still have PunBB 1.2.17, and I know I am outdated. I have two questions:

- There is a sub forum that disappeared from my forum homepage. I can still see it in the administration panel, and it's accessible if you go to its url directly, but it just is not visible from the homepage. I didn't delete it by mistake, all I did was remove a post from that forum to another one, and it disappeared.

- Can I just upgrade from 1.2.17 to 1.3 smoothly?

Thanks in advance for your answers.
