It has been almost a month since we declared ElkArte stable and released version 1.0.0
Since then we have been hard at work fixing bugs that our helpful community have let us know about. We also discovered areas that would benefit from some tightened security so we took care of those as well.
Since this is a "third-point (x.x.X)" (micro) release you will not find new features but only bug fixes and security updates to the code (and some small enhancements).
Refer to the
release notes (http://www.elkarte.net/community/index.php?topic=2085.0) on the forum for a complete list of updates.
Upgrade procedure:
For any question you may have, feel free to ask on the support forum (http://www.elkarte.net/community/index.php).
It is vital that all sites update to this release, thank you for your continued support!

where should I post update process failed? create a new topic?
For anyone that has SimplePortal installed ....
1) Be sure to uninstall SimplePortal prior to installing the patch
2) Apply the 1.0.1 patch,
3) get the latest SimplePortal package and install that on your 1.0.1 version
We made a couple of small enhancements in 1.0.1 that were originally in the SP package, but are now part of the core as they were quite helpful for other addons as well.

Can I use the "old" version of portal.css after the patch and after installig the portal again?
Oops, I’ve read it only now. Two days after installing the patch… :o
Shall I uninstall SimplePortal afterwards and install the new SimplePortal version then?
Um, on the bitbucket page for the download I can’t find a zip file for the portal...
I'm surprised you did not get some errors installing the patch, it should have complained about the first 4 edits in subs.php.
In any case, yes you should uninstall the 1.0,1 patch (it may complain about the first 4 edits in subs), then uninstall SP, then install the patch then install the latest version of SP.
Sorry about that, I removed it while I was making a few fixes for bugs that were reported. Its been restored.
I just upgraded from RC2 to 101 and so far, it works great. I'll be porting some more smf mods/addons and will upgrade three addons that I already ported here.
I might need some help with understanding layer system so I don't need to modify Elk's file(s) in the future. Do help me with this.
That's what I need @meetdilip. Thank you.
Just to be sure: did you run the "update.php" (or upgrade.php don't remember at the moment) file in the 1.0.1 patch?
There were a couple of changes to the database in 1.0.1 and that step is needed for few things to work properly. ;)

It may be improved as always. ;)
For the first one, I did not. I better check then.
For the second one, thank you. I will try to see how I can benefit from the layer system.
Are there any modifications to the code of a template?
I install the patch, but the board still says I'm running 1.0. Is that ok?
If there were no errors in the install? Sometimes if you are running an opcahce (apc, xcache, zen, etc) it can take a moment or two to refresh the cached page. You can try ctrl-f5 in your browser as well.
Problem is fixed. I just chmod everything but the setting file to 777 and reinstall the update, now the forum is showing as 1.0.1
