I think it involved, for the brave hearted, capturing file contents from github and overwriting my own local files.
I didn't persevere......
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.
