I'm not quite sure what I'm doing but I've gone through tutorial after tutorial and for the life of me nothing is working.

I've downloaded and saved a backup and want to reinstall it but this is the error message I am receiving while using PHPMyAdmin
You need to pick a database from the list on the left so it knows where to import it to.
I'm going to assume that would need to be the one that has _mybb193 at the end of it?

When I click it I don't need to upload to any of those particular files correct?

I just need to then click import?

UPDATE:
Tried again, says it was successful BUT I do not see any of my old users, threads, or forum content?

So I did something right but also something wrong...
No idea which database it will be as I don't know what they're called, but check the details in ./inc/config.php match the database you've imported the backup to.
