hi,

i have a client site running cmsms 1.2 with a gazillion content pages, albums and modules.
now i want to update the NMS module to ver. 2.1 which requires cmsms 1.2.3.

can i just overwrite the exsisting 1.2 version or do i have to make a clean install of cmsms,
including reinstalling all the galleries and pages i have running now?

greets, rootkid

Backup first and UPGRADE (from 1.2 I don't understand because you must make a clean install).
Look in Documentation for upgrade steps

hey alby :)
(from 1.2 I don't understand because you must make a clean install).
i am a little confused now.
do i go ahead now and upgrade like it says in the documentation or do i have to do a clean install?

Don't forget to put this site in the Show Off :)

Back up, back up and back up. Files and database. Know how to restore.
Then upgrade following the doc. Then upgrade NMS.
