Alright, I've a forum that I created for about a half year ago,  been quite inactive.
Now it's time to open it again, I've only about 6 members right now, but it will start grow in the upcoming weeks.
I've thoughts of fixing the design of it, found a quite nice MyBB 1.8 theme, not sure if it will work with MyBB 1.6, and if 1.6 themes works for 1.8? Not sure if I would wanna change back to my existing theme in 1.6..

I've several plugins, plugin for invition system, so when people register I've given them a code so they are in a specific usergroup instantly.

I wonder if plugins will stop working on the new update?

Also how do I update this? is it worth it? what's your opinions?

The most needed plugins I've that I still want to have is:
NewsPoints
Invition Plugin (1.3.2 , Created by cfillion)
Prostats (1.9.5, Created by [[email protected]]SaeedGh[/email])
Style usernames (1.8, Created by Lukasz "LukasAMD" Tkacz)

Those are the plugins I care about mostly. It's the current versions I also have, haven't looked up for updates or so. But I like it how it is right now except I am interested in the new version, about the themes etc.
Any info on if these plugins will still work?
most of the referred plugins are available for MyBB 1.8 and few can be made compatible for 1.8
you can upgrade to MyBB 1.8 or wait for 1.8.1
