MyBB forum backup and restore needed. - DaBaws - 03-07-2011

Hello guys.

Since my theme is fudged up, and nobody can't seem to fix it, I decided to do a backup.
Check the site here: DubTalk.

I'm not quite comftable doing a back up and reinstall myself, so I would like an experienced dude to do it.

Anyone who can help me?
Thanks.

You want to download a backup, re-install MyBB, and upload the backup? To fix the theme?

That won't fix it, just get a new theme or re-download it imo.

I would agree, unless you have a problem with the information in the database, you don't do a backup. You can install themes over and over, and it won't affect the information (posts/rep/threads/ etc) that you have on your forum.

I already thought of that, and I reuploaded, reinstalled and so on, nothing helped.
Apparently, this was just a problem with the hosting.

This fixed itself yestearday Smile.
