Hi,

I'm not quite sure how to upgrade MyBB 1.6.12 to 1.6.13. Would anyone be able to help me out?

- Download the changed files package from here
- Upload/overwrite existing files
- Open your.forum.url/install/
- Run the upgrade

You probably want to close your board while you do it.

How would I close my board?
Simple way: ACP->Configuration->Settings->Board Online / Offline->Set to 'Yes'

Safest way: Use .htaccess to block every IP address except your own while you do the upgrade: http://stackoverflow.com/a/4400412
Do i need filezilla for that?
