Upgrade and .htaccess rewrite?

Hi all, i'm currently running vBSEO 3.3.0 RC2 (unpatched), i have just downloaded the latest version and am about to upgrade, i remember last time i upgraded it caused all sorts of problems because it rewrote the .htaccess file and some things then no longer worked in my forum, will this be the case again? do i need to upload the latest .htaccess file?

Regards,
Simon

3.3 htaccess file has not changed in the sub version 3.3.0 - 3.3.1 - 3.3.2

You shouldn't have any issues.

Just be sure to back up your settings via vbseo_all.xml from the vbseocp.php control panel.

Hello Simon ,

You don't need to upgrade your .htaccess from 3.3.0 Rc2 to 3.3.2

Great thanks for the info both, one other thing the latest download, has it had the patch applied for the file system security hole or do i need a patch too?

All full releases have the patches applied to them already.

Thanks for your help, upgrade completed, one thing i will mention though, when following the steps and copying & pasting the new license key then saving it, if you then upload your settings that you saved (all_xml) the license key reverts back to your old one, i did re-copy and paste the key again but this step isn't in your upgrade instructions.

Thank you for reporting. We are aware that the readme is a bit backwards on steps 4-7. This will be fixed with our next version.
