phpwcms Support Forum

Hi experts,
I have several sites running with phpwcms 1.2.6 DEV and I've done the security measures as described by OG:
1. Delete folder "phpwcms_code_snippets"
2. Delete file "include/inc_act/act_formmailer.php"

I think it would now be wise to upgrade to the new 1.2.6 version...

I saw several Q&A's concerning upload, parser and other problems with the new version. So it would be very helpful and kind if one of the experts could consoldate all the "test"-findings and give a step by step instruction for dummies like me to do the upgrade from 1.2.6 DEV to 1.2.6...(incl. what FTP Client should be used, and other "tricky things" )

Thank you in advance!

Hi,
Thank you both for your answers!

@Pappnase: yes I know the doku site and it already helped me a lot in the past! By reading the forum I just got the impression that this upgrade might be a bit tricky...

@flip-flop: I will do so, thank you!

Have a nice day!
