Are all versions of newbb and CB capatible in the structure of tables and data they produce? Moving from newbb to CB just the categories survived. Are the tables different? The lastest version of newbb was updated this year.

I think I'm right in saying that all newbb versions can be upgraded to cbb without losing any data.
I upgraded from newbb 1.0 to cbb 1.16a (sometimes called 1.16.2) safely.
For a while I thought I'd lost my forum data and just kept my categories data too.
Simple fix. delete the html files in admin>templates>forums then regenerate them from there. For the longest time I kept on removing them from the templates_c folder via ftp, thinking that that was what I was meant to do. Not so. Actually delete them through the admin interface.
Worked for me.

Need I say 'Back-up first!!'
Never let a man who does not believe something can be done, talk to a man that is doing it.

Very good advice (both regenerating templates ... and backing up )

im not sure if this is 100% correct. but i believe that:

newbb1 and newbb2 had different table structures and

newbb2 and cbb1 and cbb3 have the same stucture..

*cbb2 i never used it before so i dont know.
