I installed my website via softaculous and don't seem to get how to upgrade. Please, I can get a step by step procedure on how to upgrade - if I tried http://docs.opensource-socialnetwork.org/index.php?title=How_To_Upgrade_Ossn -- but still couldn't.
I am absolutely new to web design/programming - upgrading prodcedure for dummy, anybody?
We have only 1.8 stable version, once 2.0 releases your software should automatically be updated by Softaculous.
EDITED: What i meant was once v2.0 releases a new update in Softaculous should be available.
There are admins who prefer to install software via Softaculous, and there are others who do it via FTP, SSH or a filemanager. I don't wanna start a discussion here which method is the better one, but there's a basic rule which is worth to know and to stay with:
Don't mix Softaculous with any of the other methods.
Thus, if Ossn offers an option to be installed by Softaculous, it has to have an option to be updated by Softaculous. The main work of Softaculous is done under the hood. And all of a sudden the admin is confronted with "source files" and "non-core" components" to remove, to backup, to install!? No good idea.
did u copy and replace the old file with new file ?
it's simple as the documents says..
login as a adminstrator
visit yoursite.com/upgrade/upgrade.php
That's all
Due to the many requests in the past for additonal features and components we have decided to develope a premium version. Features like Hashtags, Videos, Polls, Events, Stories, Link Preview, etc included in it.
