I have just backed up the site using ftp and would like to know the procedures for updating phpvms to the new version hope somewone would be kind and help me out thanks you

Hello,

Do the following to upgrade to the latest version.

  1.

    Backup your data and the local.config.php

  2.

      Download the latest copy

  3.

      Extract the latest copy to a local directory

  4.

      Upload to your server

  5.

      Visit www.yoursite.com/install/update.php to complete the update (certain portions of your site may not work until you do this).

  If the upgrade is successful, delete the install folder from the server.

If you have any problems please let us know.

Yup, the doc page is here:

http://docs.phpvms.net/installation#updates

ok nice glad it worked  ;D ;D

Just found out no one can register on the site . It seems they can fill out the forms but i dont get any pending request show up any solution thanks

Did you run the update?

You’re also updating from the last version - there are updates to the template for a captcha form, so you have to update your modified template to include those things

I do have the new update 2.o  but not shure how to update the files your talking but i do beleive i have made a back up of the old site on my pc

You probably have the pilot_registration.tpl file modified in your skin’s folder.  You have to update it to include the extra information from the default template in the /core/templates folder
