Re: ElkArte 1.0.8 - Release announcement

I've done the upgrade to the 1.0.8. I tried to follow the procedure, but couldn't do the last part, the database upgrade, as the url returned a 404 page. I basically uploaded the entire 1.0.8 directory, overwriting the 1.0.7, exception made for the docs folder. in the backend still says elkarte 1.0.8, and everything seems to work, but I'm not sure the update went through completely. any advice would be much appreciated. (p.s. yes i do have a backup)

Unless of specific cases, I would suggest to always use the package manager as described in the first message rather than replace the files. Anyway, there were no database updates in 1.0.8, so... nothing to do on that side of things. In case of database changes, since there is no upgrade package, you should use the php file provided in the patch package.
