Your forum wouldn't have any posts without that sql and an active database.

If you mean you have phpbb3, and want to know if overwriting the files and running that modded.sql will overwrite the standard forum, yes it will.

It either won't work, or you won't be able to use any of the mods installed. The modded sql is the database entries for all the mods to run.

If youve found a solution to an issue with ModphpBB3 then why not post it here for everyone to benefit from?

It's a community support forum, a forum for users to share help and info on ModphpBB and phpBB. Directing users to your own non-phpBB related forum probably for paid help isn't a form of spamming to you?

If you have help or info to share, please do here.

If you give us a few days, I will dig out what I done to get it running on my forum with 402,867 posts.

It will be a 'no come backs if fails' though. ;)
