• Just upload the "upgrade" folder to your forum root and run:
http://domain.com/forum/upgrade/index.php

• Then just follow the instructions!

• Note that if you upgrade your forum from v1.x to v2.x, then you will lose all your board modifications & skins!

• Good luck!

Actually to upgrade from 1.3 you don't use upgrade/index.php, just read the readme and all will be clear...

If you have any problems or are unconfortable doing it, you could always get IPS to do it for you, just submit a support ticket.
