I completed my first upgrade today and it went surprisingly smooth.
- I backup the ninja folder and SQL first
- Placed the new zip in the parent directory above ninja
- Extracted it into the parent directory above ninja and allowed for overwrite
- Went to site.com/update - waited till the page loaded saying it updated successfully
- Updated the .htaccess with my custom data
- Checked these forums for any bugs/fixes
- Done
I can’t believe how simple that was. I know I can automate this but I prefer to update it manually. Thanks for all the hardwork and foresight into the updating process. I was worried a lot of my custom stuff would be removed but since I used the custom_CSS area in options everything transferred over without a hitch.
P.S. I’ve already added in all my reoccuring expenses! So extremely useful.
