I' fairly sure the info is here somewhere but I can't find it. I've got a live forum and I'd like to upgrade but the instructions don't make it clear how I can import the existing forums/threads - can someone explain or point me to the right place? Thanks.

Assuming you mean upgrading from 5.0.something to 5.0.something then this explains the best ways: http://codex.simple-press.com/.....version-5/

Sorry, I wasn't clear... 4.5 to 5.x. 

Thanks

I'd read that before, and I just read it now... it's still unclear to me but let me ask this... when I "perform upgrade" is that when the existing forums/threads come over?

Thanks... I need reassurance.

Worry not. Your forum, topic and post data is not touched.
