Downgrading from 4.3.6 to 4.2 (?)

[InfectedX 0]

Hello!

 

So, I´ve been using weeks to figure out an issue I´m having. I set up a IPB forum due to one occasion, which I am unable to fulfill, as I am having a hard time finding a supported application. 

I am looking for a "Staff application"/application form/topic form application, which enables users to follow a certain style of topic, which then posts the topic into a specific forum. I´ve found several relevant applications, however, these wouldn´t support the current IPB Version I am running, which happens to be the latest (?), 4.3.6. Even the "Staff Applications Systems" posted by Devlin himself, gives me an outdated message. 

 

So, to the point. Due to this hassle, I am looking for a way to downgrade from 4.3.6, to either 4.1.x or 4.2.x, depending on what application I can find supporting the versions. I´ve however not found any specific tutorial explaining how this downgrade is done, so I thought I´d ask you guys, if you had a solution to this. (I´d rather not do a clean install, as I´ve used ages translating the language )

 

Thank you

You are unable to downgrade to an older version of IPS. It simply isn't possible.

However, if you have backups of your database and the IPS installation before upgrading to 4.3.x, you could simply revert to that point but you would lose any data accrued since then.
