Request for feedback: upgrading to 4.0.8

[lemonadesoda]

I'm planning an upgrade from 4.0.5 to 4.0.8 for the weekend. I remember there were various issues with earlier 4.0.x upgrades, requiring patches or another point upgrade. I am therefore in a bit of fear because I will be out the next 2 weeks and therefore can't remedy any repairs.

Has anyone gone to 4.0.8 yet? From which version? Any issues or can you give the all clear?

From 4.0.7 to 4.0.8. The User Profiles are in some styles now broken, and i think that custom user profile option is just a style breaker ...

I updated a clients site from .5 to .8 and didn't have any major problems
most the templates need updated, so if you can get an updated version of your skin, you should be good to go

I went from 4.07 to 4.08 last night in about 10 minutes.

The only issue I have is with AME plugin, had to manually re-edit the video includes file to ensure it continued to parse youtube and similar video urls.

The upgrade routine has clearly been improved.

PM me if you have any questions.

are template/style edits and everything saved during the upgrade?

Ah, lots of issues appearing on the forum. I think I will hold off doing an update

i lost 2 skin with updating to vb 4.0.8, therefore we need something to do with the templates or we should contact the designer "again" and request to update it "again"
