Currently we are using 1.2.13 on a server that was given to us for free and one of the reasons I am moving it is because of the fact that I don't have enough access to upgrade the forum myself. We are moving to a new webhost soon and I wanted to upgrade to 1.4.x. Would it be better to install 1.4 on the new server then import the dbase from the old one or move the old one and then upgrade?

Thanks,

Kurt

No difference really. You either upgrade on your current server and copy across a 1.4 database with 1.4 files, or you transfer across a 1.2 database with 1.2 files and upgrade after. You'll have to upgrade it no matter what you do....

I would suggest the following path:

1) Move your database and MyBB 1.2 files over
2) Update to MyBB 1.4.
