If you have problems yell.

1) Backup before you start upgrades - database and file system

2) There are many changes.
- I would disable hacks plugins, products and hashout file edits of hacks added in the forums to show gallery data. (CMPS , forumhome, postbit, memberinfo, forumdisplay, other)

Upload and replace all files from the gallery package.

Run the install script from your browser by going to:

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

[ x ] Upgrade.

This script will make all necessary changes to your database, templates, phrases, and settings. Once you have finished please remove vbgallery_install.php, product-ppvbgallery.xml in the forums/admincp folder.

LAST:
- Edit:
forums/includes/init.php

- Find:
require_once(CWD . '/includes/class_core.php');

- Below Add:
require_once(CWD . '/includes/functions_gallery_store.php');

- Upload this file to /forums/includes

Notes:
PhotoPost vBGallery, v2.1
V2.0+ Table Changes
