So far there have been 2 people positing here that they actually had a problem with upgrading. In both cases it seems pretty obvious that the problem was due to not upgrading all files to the latest version.

So let me say it again, you can keep your existing _basic_config.php if you have one (versions 1.6 and up) but you have to replace all other files with the new ones.

You can also keep your existing skin if it is recent enough (versions 1.8 and up).

The comments with problems have unrouteable email addresses, so I cannot help you guys personally. (Dare I be sarcastic enough to say that the required skill level to perform an upgrade is to be able to spell your own email address correctly? :> )

Furthermore, let me remind you the place for tech support is the forums, not here.

Anyway, seems that the upgrade process globally works extremely well (as long as you do upload all required files ;)

Thanks again for all, and keep on the good work !

Long story short, I manned-up and did it manually.

You weren’t kidding Francois, it was actually pretty easy.

Thanks Man.

Thanks for the upgrade.

Upgrading is a breeze and easy. My site works just fine as promised.

Keep up the good work and thanks again for keeping this blog script free for all.
