Help required on upgrade
« on: March 22, 2013, 12:36:04 AM »
Good Day people.
I have no clue of what to do regarding updating a site manually, I have basic knowhow.
Could someone please tell me in "baby terms" what I do.
1/ I have downloaded the zip file and unzipped it
2/ do I go to the SQL in my control panel or the files wizard/management to insert them
3/ When i'm in the correct place what folder do I open
4/ do i then just copy and paste them into the folder
5/ do I need to change text as I have read in a previous post for an older upgrade
and finally do I do the same things all over again to get me from the 1.1 that I am running to the 1.1.4 that I need
All comments will be greatly appreciated, Thank you

To upgrade cart from v1.1.0 to 1.1.1 download this package, unpack and replace all files of your abantecart by files from "code" subfolder.

To upgrade from 1.1.1 up to 1.1.2 go to abantecart admin section, menu extensions->install extension. Type in field  "abantecart_upgrade_112" and press "go".
The same with upgrade to 1.1.3 and 1.1.4... keys for upgrade abantecart_upgrade_113 and abantecart_upgrade_114.

Do not forget do full backup before start.
