Idiot Upgrading

[jimjam]

Can someone point this idiot to a guide to upgrade photopost from 5.62 to 6.2

The only instructions I can find in the download are pretty scant of detail that can be understood by idiots.

Thanks in anticipation

In the documentation folder of the download upgrade.txt and changelog.txt.

Basically in laymans terms unzip the download delete install.php config-inc.php config-int.php header.htm footer.htm and then upload everything else to your site overwriting your photopost and run upgrade.php and select to upgrade 5.62 to 6.0 link. Thats it.

If I upload and overwrite the data folder, wont I lose all the pictures within?

[Chuck S]

You can remove the uploads and data folders if you wish but uploading them will not harm anything either. I just posted easy instructions above for you.

Thanks for that Chuck. Quick Question, is the process exactly the same with Reviews and Classifieds that I have to upgrade as well?

[Chuck S]

Yes the upgrade instructions would be the same overwrite things except the config files and run the required upgrades sure.
