Hi, I have a question for you. I am currently still using the version of MyBB 1.6.2, if you wanted to update to version 1.6.5 which steps should I follow?
-Download the package with only the updated files and replace the previous file and then start the upgrade?
Or should I do otherwise?
What are the plugins that no longer work on MyBB 1.6.5? If you do not upgrade the plugins, I could affect the operation of the forum?
Thank you all

Plugins can be made compatible with a few small changes.

first take backup of your myBB forum files & database ; deactivate all plugins ;
turn off forum from admin panel ; Also its better to use a .htaccess file so that
only you can have access to your forum during the upgrade

download myBB 1.6.5 complete package AND upload all contents of upload folder
by overwriting earlier installed files ; finally run the upgrade script ( upgrade.php )

some of the plugins installed earlier might not work on 1.6.5 . there is no list to
say which work ; you can post here to get suggestions to modify those plugins



I have a problem after the update is for all the admin cp, but going in the index I get a blank page. I tried several times to update and also delete the chace but nothing. You know help me?
^ your forum URL please ... may be all files were correctly not uploaded ...

To go from version 1.6.2 to version 1.6.5 I just downloaded the package containing the modified files. is that correct?
^ No ; you need complete package of 1.6.5 to upload in place of existing files ...
Thanks, i'm solved Wink
