Well as you might know MyBB 1.6.3 came out. I have 0 idea how to update the software without losing my members, theme, awards, and so forth. Could someone tell me how I would go about doing this?

Thanks <3

Thank you.

That wiki is tricky to navigate sometimes, but I will try harder to find the answer there if I ever need help. Smile
