Upgrading to RC5.2

[dpakman91]

I want to upgrade to the newversion, but i currently have the following modifications to my 3 directories:

-Header: New logo, links to other websites
-Footer: Links to other websites
-main.css: page width changed
-Body: google ads added

How can i upgrading without having to re-edit these things on each of my 3 directories?

Make a copy of your tpl files and your css file (better yet, backup all files)
Then upload the 5.2 files.
Then overwrite with the tpl files and css files that you saved.

I don't believe there are any database changes, but if there were, you would go to yourdirectory.com/install and move through the steps, and it would take care of all the database changes, but would not damage your existing data (though you always should make a backup before doing anything like this).

I had just done exactly as you specified, David (prior to seeing your post!) and it worked perfectly!

Yup, it should work just fine.

Sometimes a TPL is modified by us, in that case I'd let you know.

later
