Using the upgrade Docs
Stopping at running the upgrade script:
Download the latest version of UBBâ„¢ from the Member Area.
Extract the upgrade files, using a program like WinZip to unzip the distribution zip.
Use your UBBâ„¢ control panel to turn your board off.
Connect to your server using your FTP client. Navigate the client to your current UBBâ„¢ installation directory.
Upload all files and directories from the unzipped UBBâ„¢ directory to the UBBâ„¢ installation directory, except for the includes, styles, and cache_builders/custom directories. You will want to upload all of the .php files within the cache_builders directory, just make sure not to upload the custom directory or files within it. When upgrading to 7.57 you may need to upload the styles/admin.css and styles/common.css files individually.
Verify that permissions on any newly uploaded files are correct for your server platform. Please review the full installation instructions for a reminder on necessary permissions.
Also you can exclude the install folder since you will not be running install nor upgrade.
Just make sure you copy the same version you are using currently.
The only caveat is you have any mods to the code.
Then you need to edit the specific scripts.
