I am completely lost on how to update bbtonuke forums on phpnuke.

AND i cant find out what version i have! I tried to update it once but everything disappeared and i had to reload the forums again.

I may have used the wrong version but since I dont know which i have i dont know which i need. Where do i look to find this information?

You can find which version you have by running this script: [ Register or login to view links on this board. ]

Once you know the version, go to : [ Register or login to view links on this board. ] and find each version you need (there are some there for the patched nuke, be aware of this)...REMEMBER you have to update consecutively. Example: upload the 20.10 files, then run the upgrade script...then upload the 20.11files, then run that upgrade script...etc... BACKUP all files involved before overwriting/editing for each version first! (very important).

Ok, i have my version, 2.0.14, and i have the 2.0.15 files. Now, all i need to do (in theory) is upload the files and overwrite and run the script? Or do I need to do some editing instead of just overwriting?

Backup all files involved first, then just overwrite and run the upgrade script...then on to the next, no editing is needed unless you have hacks/mods. If you do have them, then wait untill your finished upgrading then do your edits if needed. BTW the latest forums version is 2.0.19.

Ok, i overwrote the files and then used the upgrade file. Then i deleted it as it said and whent to my forums. Everything looks fine until I tried to acess my Admin panel...it came up as a white page. Why?

The upgrade14-15.php is the correct file i need to run right?
