I have a forum that is a few years old and I'm looking to take all of the users/threads/posts and put them onto a fresh installation of mybb on my same server. I've already done a second install and have the new site set up and I'm just looking to transfer the data over. Can someone explain how to do this? Thanks!

The forum is also in MyBB? If yes, why don't you just upgrade it?

Yes, it's mybb. I've upgraded it, but it has some issues that I can't get fixed so I chose to do a new install.
