Hello
First i really like MyBB! But i have a question. I want to mod my MyBB full. But when i have a lot of mods installed can i update safe without any problems.
Almost thanks

Upgrading to another 1.4.x release with 1.4.x plugins shouldn't cause any problems at all
I've upgraded fine with ~30-40 plugins before.
Ok thanks! Was that on 1.4 becoze i really want to see you forum then =P. And antother question i want to make an modded version that i don't have te whole time to install. So like a database that i can export and then import it to al my other databases?
Sorry for my really bad Engelish.

If you want an example of a heavy modified 1.4x version.

Pretty much only major version upgrades break plugins (1.2x->1.4x->1.6x) 1.4x was recently released and so far I see no plans on a 1.6x update soon.
It should be a problem to create your own version with mods installed. The key will be to export your database and save your file structure. Then after install edit inc/config.php and inc/settings.php to your liking. Now you must enter admincp and alter the settings.php there and save it so the settings.php will be correct to match.
Oh and also make sure you have at least your admin account created.
That should do it.
Wow nice! Is hackingforums one of your productions? I've already an account there =D. But i got one question again. Is there also a option so you can download only the code edits from a new version?
Or can ou better deactivate you plugins and update?

Yes each upgrade has a "changed files" package which is usually posted on the release announcement.
However, please note some upgrades require running the upgrader to update templates, settings, and database structure.

Yes that's a site I birthed so to speak. And I wonder how many people have come to mybb because of that site? I know that with each popular site that runs mybb more admins want to use it.
A year ago i want something like IPB and i say MyBB and it was perfect =D.

Ok and when you have to do the last thing stand that then in the readme?

Not sure what you mean by that...

It will be posted in the release announcement whether or not you need to run the upgrader.
