Well, after a little of this and a little of that I got it to work with no problems!... Some hacks did put columns in certain areas of the sql that needed to be removed for the upgrade to work, but no big deal...

Is it common to have steady updates? (Sorry, new owner here)


I upgraded to 3.0.2 and spent about 3 hours reinstalling and adjusting files to work. The upgrade from 3.0.2 to 3.0.3 was only about an hour.

I'd just like to say I'm really appreciative of the fact that modified files are listed in upgrades.

Releases usually aren't that fast, but they have been a few times in the past. Case in point: 2.3.1 -> 2.3.2.

Is this new release crucial for your board?

I've got one of the boards still running 3.0.1. o.o;;

took about 3 1/2 hours, probably less time if the tv wasnt on;) Lost 2 hacks that dont seem to work anymore though.

out of curiosity, which 2 hacks?

btw: is there an easy way of finding out what aspects of the templates have changed? I have like 20 to go through.

Shinra -

Just click on "Find Updated Templates" in Admin CP in the listings for Style Manager

HoC

Yeah I did that - but does it say where which aspects of those templates were edited? I would hate to revert and lose the customizations made.

I've just about finished upgrading to 3.0.3..
I'm having problems with the "Multiple Thumbnailed Profilepictures" hack though.. :(

I also want to work on "touching up" a few things on the style too (though it can't be done on the live forum until next month, since we're in the vBotM vote at the moment).

I upgraded effortlessly. Even my most complex feature additions are done only through phpinclude plugin scripts and template changes--as virtually every hack can be (read that very deliberately)--so as soon as a new version comes out, I upgrade.
