Upgrading to 3.5.1 Assistance

hey all, I currently have installed 3.3.1 but i just downloaded 3.5.1

How can i update vbseo without screwing up the existing settings that I have in vbseo?

thanks kindly

Hi Jono,

You should be able to simply follow the standard upgrade process, as outlined in the readme file, just make sure you do a backup from your vbseocp.php just in-case.

Hi Jono,

Not 'make a backup of vbseocp.php', 'make a backup of your settings in vbseocp.php'.

The options page is on the 'Data Backup & Restore' tab of the Dashboard area.

I just backed up vbseo-all.xml

I have successfully upgraded to the point where it now says

Click on the 'Browse' button within the 'Upload a Settings (.xml) File' box. so i can get that one i saved

But where is this Upload a settings box?? is it in vbseocp.php or in my vbulleting admincp?

Like do i have to do that part where i upload the .xml as my forum look as though the settings have not changed from the old vbseo, if i do where do i upload?

Ah i found it the new version has it under the tab

99.9% of the time, you will NOT need to upload the XML backup. Your settings are saved in the datastore.
