All-righty, I have a couple moments to breathe after coming back from vacation--a big WOO-HOO to Rick and the gang for getting T7 released--and now I'd like to try to play with our new toy.


I'm just a tad nervous, so please humor me!

If I'm reading the install instructions correctly, I upload the files--set the chmod to the right permissions--and then start the install process.

Is this correct?

I want to convert my classic test board to threads--and then, down the road, I would like to do the same with my live board. Both boards are on a same server that hosts adwoff.com

How do I make sure that I'm able to do this? When I tried to cnvert my test board to threads 6.5 a month or so ago, I messed something up. I don't want to do that again.

At what point do I use the import script? And can the import script be used on a 6.7.2 classic board?

Questions, questions, questions.

I'll have a bunch of them, and I'd like to thank you each in advance for your help.

~Sue <<-- asks that everyone uses the K.I.S.S. approach for explaining things to me!

Hi Sue. Yep, that's pretty much it for the installation. Once you get the install done then you can download the classic_import.zip file. There is a little README within that's fairly straightforward and yes, the import script will work with 6.7.2

So far, so good! (YAY!)

Now I gotta start playing.

Oh, I do have one question ... the avatars didn't make the import. Is that the way it should've been?
