Files with menor or no funtional changes: (only text)
so basically i overwrite the old files with the new ones and then upload them. This wont effect users accounts or the new skins i have created will it?
Is it worth upgrading or wait for a newer majororly changed version?
This detailed message is for those people who carried out his own mods
or changes in many files. So, depend what mods and changes in files you
are using.
If you are running a forum in english, you are blessed, I understand
you only have to overwrite the older files with the new ones. This will
not have any effect over the database. Of course, backup first your
database, do not overwrite with the new empty one.
About the new skins, if you are working in other languaje or have some
mods, do not overwrite without think first in the mods you do not want
to lose. I changed my own icons in spanish and other minority changes
in all files (eg. warning error messages when the user use some
formularies, autoresponse emails, etc), so I maintain these files
changes and upgrading manually using Visual Comparer.
Upgrading is the best way to keep your forum run securelly and without bugs. Go ahead, the programer's effort is worth.
