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

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
