Sounds like you may have overridden the db as well.
Also, check the installation instructions about setting up the connection strings.

I've managed to find a back up of all the forum files from when I took the site over and have uploaded them and it's all working as it was before I started fiddling!

Do you have any idea what I did wrong?

Backup your database then overwrite the ASP files with that from the latest version.

Hello! Smile
 
A while back I inherited a Web Wiz Forum with a site I was rebuilding.  I have never done anything with the Forum although it is in daily use.
 
It is Version 7.7.  I notice there is a new version out now.
 
How do I make sure that I don't loose any information or posts that are already on the Forum if I download the new version?

Does anyone have any tips on how to upgrade?
 
Thanks so much for any help! Big smile
