Hey everybody sorry for the noobish questions and all, but I'm having some troubles. First off, I've never upgraded a myBB board before in my life so I have no idea how to do it and I'm pretty confused. I'm running 1.6.1 right now and I wan't to upgrade to 1.6.3 but I have no idea how.
The page says to upload all the files which will overwrite my files. I don't want to lose my settings and my plugins etc. So how can I upgrade without losing everything? And how do I just upgrade from 1.6.1 to 1.6.3, I don't know how and the upgrade page is very confusing.
Alright I think I've upgraded but now I'm having troubles with some of my plugins. The first is my sidebox plugin. Now my forum is to the right and the sidebox is missing. Also my tabbed forum plugin wont work either.

Disable the side box and disable the tabbed menu plugin, then re enable them both and re set them up.
Note: Once you have disabled them both, make sure index.php looks normal before re enabling them, if not, post back here.
Alright I've re configured both plugins to work accordingly, now one minor thing I've noticed is in my previous version, with the theme I'm using now the logo was centered, now it's to the side and I'm missing some buttons I had on the top next to search and stuff.

Did you revert/change the 'header' template? - That's where the buttons are located.
As for the logo, go to Admin CP --> Templates & Styles --> Themes --> Your Theme --> global.css --> Click 'Edit Stylesheet: Advanced Mode' --> Find '.logo {' --> Next to 'text-align:' make sure the alignment is 'center' so it should look like this (that's my theme, but it should be similar for you):
.logo {
background: #e68926 url(images/xblu/logo_bg.png) top left repeatx;
height: 60px;
border-bottom: 1px solid #000;
text-align: center;
If that doesn't work, go to Admin CP --> Templates & Styles --> Templates --> Your template --> Header Templates --> header.
Find:
<div class="logo"><a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/index.php"><img src="{$theme['logo']}" alt="{$mybb->settings['bbname']}" title="{$mybb->settings['bbname']}" /></a></div>
Change it to:
[center]<div class="logo"><a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/index.php"><img src="{$theme['logo']}" alt="{$mybb->settings['bbname']}" title="{$mybb->settings['bbname']}" /></a></div>[/center]
Alright thanks got the center thing working. Now theres one more problem. Before the upgrade I had the buttons below the header, now they're on the right and I don't have the icons for them. I'm using the Adumbral theme.

I suspect your 'header' template was reverted as all these changes have happened.
Yes that is what it is supposed to look like. Right now it's on the side though.

Can you post your 'header' template here please? I will make the edits for you and post back.
