Yes, download 1.8.x and then upload all of the files from the upload folder into the root of your FTP server.

From there, go to your website (with /install at the end) and follow the instructions.

Will that keep all threads etc?

Yes.

Just make sure you update your plugins.

I heard much plugins should work on 1.8 now to :p i hope its worth it the upgrade from 1.6 to 1.8

What I did is I downloaded threads, users, posts, usergroups and so on, which I imported back into the empty 1.8.X database.

Could you tell me how to do this?

No offense but if you do not know how that works, you shouldn't run a forum. :yay:

I did not say i don't know how it works. Just wandering if you backed up the database or downloaded every single thread
