I'm running UBB.threads™ 7.0.2 but want to upgrade to 7.1 when it's ready.

When upgrading, how many files do you upload? All of them or just a number of them?

I'm worried about overwriting certain content.

Thanks.

Standard upgrade. Don't overwrite your cache_builders/custom, includes or styles directories. Do run the install/upgrade.php script.

Or you can do as i do and everyone goes Noooooo Wayyyyy

I upload them as requested via the upgrade script 1 at a time.

If you havnt upgraded before,

1. You will run a script. As Gizmo says.
2. It will tell you which files to upload in a list.
3. It will check you have done them all correctly.
4. If not you can not proceed.
5. It will tell you what's missing and from where.
6. Dont panic when you see the language file upgrade its safe.

7.02 --->> Extra Notes :

1. New Style Sheets - Extra feilds to be filed in, see 7.1.5b discussion.

2. New Database fields. (Automatic nothing to worry about).
3. New Captcha if you have GD2 or imagmagick6 on your server.
4. New Images for your Posting Buttons.
5. New Moods (images to be uploaded).

Final Note :
1. Delete your install files.
2. After upgrading always try and register on your
own forums incase of any registration issues.

Hope that helps.
Then come back hear and Praise Rick
