Hi guys i got MYBB installed over easyPHP on my other computers, and id like to switch all over this one. What would be the best way to do so ? I mean is there any specifics step to do to get it done properly. Because ive always had trouble in the past ... Sometimes port was changed and so on ... So im asking what would be the steps to do so

Thanks.
If you use cPanel hosting then login to your cPanel (Usually www.yourdomain.com/cpanel ) and then goto backup wizard, and then select FULL BACKUP, wait for it to complete backup and download that full package.

It'd contain everything of your forum, from A - Z, i.e. any saved email lists, all MySQL databases, all web directory and folders, everything.
During backup process using Cpanel can bring your site down.
I recommend this one: http://www.mysqldumper.net/
