Cybertay Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 I have old backup of my oldest forums from 2015 . Is there a way to import all of the data I had there to the newer up to date IPB? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy Calvert Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 2015 was when the initial release of IPB 4.0 was made. That's even assuming you were running an updated version at the time. It's technically possible, but would take SIGNIFICANT effort. I don't know personally if it would be worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexJ Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 Yes you can do. See my upgrade experience here: https://invisioncommunity.com/forums/topic/471614-upgrade-from-ipb-34x/ As long as you correct Env set up not an issue. Don't expect any IPS support. IPS 4.x. should be smooth overall but from IPS 3.x - you will have to go from IPS 3.4.x latest version to IPS 4.7.3 and then to latest. IPS doesn't provide older versions even though they will have in their archives. So you will have to rely on someone from here helping you OR use copy available in 'Google search'. I shouldn't say above but if you need to upgrade from IPS 3.4.x their is no easy way... and I don't know how else to say. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
