Hello everybody.
I'm looking to upgrade my old forum site so that it has more web content and more importantly works well on a smartphone. It's currently V2.5.1a, is it safe/possible to upgrade it to a newer version and then install a responsive theme over it without losing all the posts? While I'm at it would also like an auto-resizer so that people don't keep downloading 2M pics because they can't resize them themselves. One option I've been exploring is redoing the whole thing in Wordpress and then trying to port the database over, but WP forums are pretty rubbish.
Many thanks for any input - Steve
