Hello,

I am going to be changing my host today and I have a relatively small forum.

How would I go about backing EVERYTHING up? Everything has to get transfered over.

Thanks!!

1. Transfer all your files from your current host.
   
2. Then make a back up of the MySQL database using phpMyAdmin or something similar.
   
3. Next import you database to your new hosts MySQL server, using phpMyAdmin or something similar.
   
4. Upload all of the files to your new host using FTP.
   
5. Then edit your /inc/config.php and change the information to match your new host. If you are uncomfortable editing the file feel free to use my script to re-build it.
   

Change your general configuration settings under admin cp > board settings > change too.

Please also remember you need to re-CHMOD the inc/settings.php to 666, and /uploads/ and /uploads/avatars to 777.

Thanks!
