Forum

Before I begin upgrading my forum and Mambo installation I wanted to check some things out that I saw on the upgrade instructions.

1. The steps in upgrading are to
   (1) uninstall the mod_smf_login module,
   (2) uninstall the Mambo component, and
   (3) uninstall the SMF-Mambo package.

   Question: Is this the best time to actually do the upgrade to the forum itself, after everything is clean?

   (4) (re)install the component
   (5) (re)install the package.

2. Second question - the upgrade instructions don't say when to reinstall the login module - in fact, they don't mention reinstalling it at all. Would I just reinstall the module from the current version? Or does the login module not work with the new version of SMF? or what?

Just want to be sure I know what I'm doing before I smack my system  ;D

You don't have to uninstall the login module.

But if you do want to upgrade, I suggest you test it first. Because we have not really fully tested it. You can check the demo site though, which seems to be running ok. I guess I would suggest to you to stay with the current stable version you have.
