Test site upgraded and running fine,
Production to be upgraded tomorrow :)
Sorry does anyone have any fool proof upgrade instructions for 1.8.8 to 1.8.9 ?
Drag and drop?
It's Working Good Elgg 1.8.9 :)
@Michele, thanks I had tried that from the upgrade.txt file within the elgg1.8.9, however it went pair shaped and I can no longer access my dev site.
Do I need to turn off ALL non core plugins before overwriting core plugins ?
Followed the proceedure by the letter but didnt work. Anything basic I am missing ?
Turn off ALL plugins before overwriting ? including core plugins ?
1.8.9 seems to work much cleaner with our plugins (still under dev they are). I don't know what they did, but pages load much quicker. We had an error with profile plugin in start.php, must be conflicting with a plugin. Commented out the code and now it runs. We do have some CSS issues popping up since the upgrade.
Silly question but how do I know the upgrade has been successful ?
The Plugins say 1.8.9 but nothing seems to have changed at all.... Could I have just copied over some of the files and not all of them ?
