I currently am using phpNuke 7.2. I am wanting to upgrade it to the fixed 7.4 version on this site, but I'm wondering, will I will lose all my blocks and modules in the process? If so, can any of you give me an exact, short tutorial on all files and folders I need to backup? Thanks.
I've done the same. Moved from 7.2 normal to 7.4 fixed. But my site is full of modifications.
If You have no personal modifications:
First backup everything!
Overwrite the files with the 7.4 ones.
Edit config.php
Check the upload directiories - like the avatar upload dir - and chmod them if needed.
Execute the database upgrades 7.2->7.3 then 7.3->7.4
Restore any modified blocks overwritten and lost
If You have modifications:
Do the same like above, but:
I advice to comment every change in the code with an easily findable pattern, like '//edited row', and a description what change was made.
Then if You upload the new files, make the same modifications on them. Do not simply use the old ones, if possible.
No, your database should remain intact and upgraded after you run the upgrade scripts. It is recommended to backup your database before doing any changes.
Cool, thanks. I have another question about something completely different.
I help run a gaming clan, and the clan has decided to change tags and playing names. If I change someones username in phpMyAdmin, will all their previous posts change to being as posted as that name? Or, will it just stay as being posted by the original name?
