Sir Dude / Ruben / Gizmo,

Just wondered with regards the latest instructions (love the new clarity of the new layout etc) from https://www.ubbcentral.com/doc_upgrade7.php

As I, and most I'm sure are already on last December's 7.57, I just wondered if, in the "PERFORMING THE UPGRADE" section, point 5 if...

...we DO add the STYLES > admin.css / common.css to a 7.57 - 7.58 upgrade or not?

It's not clear in the context of the sentence as it says " When upgrading to 7.57 you may need to..."

So do I overwrite those two files or not please?

I will defer to SD since our instructions are to follow standard upgrade instructions.

And I am waiting on the dust to settle to upgrade anything.

But the instructions say to ignore the styles folder this time.

In regards to the style directory step in the upgrade instructions, I tend to just delete the "wrappers" file from the style directory in my upgrade package that I roll out to people (since this is really the only thing in there that one would worry about being overwritten anyhow).

common.css has changed, so upload that.

admin.css hasn't, but upload anyway, so you get a new Script version
