MyBB Community Forums

I had run a fairly successful forum in the past it was of mybb 1.4 it had 348 members and a couple 100 threads but unfortunately my hosting account got suspended . But now i run a forum of same topic on mybb 1.6 and i have the backup of the previous 1.4 forum . Is it possible to merge that database into my current forum ? If yes then what are the steps please guide me
and also which things get merged ?

Why don't you just import the old database into a 1.4 fresh install, and then upgrade it to 1.6?

I want to merge it with my current forum

---

Any ideas can i do it or no ?

Waiting for an answer . Please reply fast

I'm not too sure about the specifics of merge system, but I'm pretty sure it needs to run at least 1.6.

Recover the forum with your previous database, upgrade it to 1.6, then merge it.

Yes, though VB 4 isn't supported yet. Take a look here: http://www.mybb.com/downloads/merge-system
