Can I just get some clarification?
1) Is Newbb the default XOOPS forum released with 2.0.7? I know this sounds daft but I want to confirm because that is my understanding, and when Newbb2 is released eventually it will be a simple update procedure and distributed with Xoops?
2) The ported modules like phpBB and the IPP bulletin boards by
http://www.bbpixel.com seem very popular. However, the installation instructions in them state that I need to OVERWRITE some of my core XOOPS folders with the folders in the modules. I'm worried that if I do that I'll loose a lot of my data or settings? For example, one of the folders I am supposed to overwrite is the System Admin folder!! Can someone confirm that I do indeed need to overwrite the root folders of my XOOPS system with those in the module before I do?
If possible, I'd like to stick with the XOOPS modules wherever possible, but the current forum is a bit 'lacking'. If the new XOOPS one (Newbb2) is likely to be much better, then I may stick with that rather than trying to use ported versions, but I need to get one up and running ASAP.
Any help or advice appreciated.
Cheers
Ted
