Hi I was wondering if there is going to be a clean up tool to get rid of any IPB 2 files that haven't been overwrote.

Micheal, owner of the 2.3 tool, that did just that. Plans to port it 3.0 (I hope I'm speaking correctly)

Actually, my tool is for database changes, not files.

Yep, apologies.

I got to stop skimming and start reading. Just dump everything but the /uploads/ folder and the config_global file. (Back it up just in case) then upload IPB 3.

More detailed install procedure should come around final.

Just delete anything except:

- conf_global.php
- style_x
- uploads

Before uploading the IPB 3 files.

And then after the install is complete, delete the style_x folders (the contents of which I believe get copied to the new place in the installation)

If you have blog installed, don't delete your /blog/ directory though :)

Oh yeah, or /downloads or /screenshots if you use Downloads :)

I just created a fresh directory and renamed it to the same name as the live board when I was ready to upgrade... instant squeaky clean :D
