<h1>Welcome to the IPB Upgrade Center</h1>
This document will provide you with the information required to upgrade your IPB 1 series board to the IPb 2.0.0 series board.
The upgrade process physically updates your current series 1 database and for that reason, we <strong>strongly</strong> recommend that you back up your
SQL database and files before attempting this upgrade.
<br />
<br />
Also note that existing skins are not immediately IPB 2.0.0 compatible. They are roughly converted into the IPB 2.0.0 <em>format</em> but they will require
<strong>manual</strong> upgrading. The conversion process puts them as children of the "Pre IPB 2.0.0" skin set for your review.
<br />
<br /><strong>Remember: There is no downgrade path!</strong>
<h2>Backing up your database</h2>
We recommend that you back up your database by using the <em>mysqldump</em> command line tool:
<br />
<pre>mysqldump --opt -u<span style='color:red'>username</span> -p <span style='color:red'>databasename</span> &gt; <span style='color:red'>databasename</span>.sql</pre>
(Substituting <em>username</em> for your MySQL username and <em>databasename</em> for your MySQL database name)
<br />
Once the backup is complete (and it may take quite a while for larger boards) you should then download your IPB PHP files to complete the back-up process.
<br />
<h2>Deleting the old files</h2>
Once the backup process is complete, you can safetly delete all the IPB 1 series files EXCEPT <span style='font-family:monospace'>conf_global.php and the uploads folder</span>.
<br />
You can keep the directory <span style='font-family:monospace'>style_images</span> and its contents if desired and we recommend keeping
<span style='font-family:monospace'>html/emoticons</span> to prevent your
old posts from showing broken images inplace of emoticons. If you wish to remove this directory, you can rebuild all your post caches once the upgrade
has completed.
<h2>Uploading the new files</h2>
Upload the contents of the unarchived IPB 2.0.0 zip file (all the files in the 'upload' folder EXCEPT <span style='font-family:monospace'>conf_global.php</span>. If you
do overwrite this file by mistake, you will have to edit it manually to put back in your database details.
<br />Make sure you upload all the files, including the folders and contents: <span style='font-family:monospace'>install</span>, <span style='font-family:monospace'>upgrade</span>
and <span style='font-family:monospace'>ipb_templates.xml</span>.
<h2>Using the upgrade tool</h2>
Once you've uploaded all the files, point your browser at: <span style='font-family:monospace'>http://<span style='color:red'>domain.com/forum/</span>upgrade/upgrade.php</span>. (Substituting
<em>domain.com/forum/</em> for your real location to your board.
<br />
The upgrade tool will figure out which version you are currently running. Take a moment to make sure its correct and read the safety notice before proceeding.
<br />
The upgrade tool will then automatically run through all the required steps. This may take a while on some of the steps - please be patient.
<br />
Once the upgrade tool has completed the process, you can log into the board and the administrators control panel to check that the upgrade process has been
successful.
<br />
<br />
That's it - you should now be running the latest IPB 2.0.0 version!
