Upgrade from 1.0.6 to actual version

Hi,

what is the best way to upgrade from CMSMS 1.0.6 to 1.5.2?

I think, I should copy files and database to a new test-hosting, edit the config.php and then try to upgrade.

But how do I upgrade? Must I update and upgrade every version between 1.0.6 and 1.5.2? Ist there a "one-do-it-all" upgrade out there?

Thank you for helping me.

Simon,

a upgrade is normally, putting the latest FULL version over the files you currently have, and start the install/upgrade.php process...

This should only be done AFTER having backed up BOTH DB and Files...

Be aware, that the news-templates, have become DB-driven in between, meaning that if you have modified them, that you should copy/paste them in the templates. If you havent modified them, then you could recreate the current default template, to have a single default template for News.

Also be aware that you may need to upgrade your modules...
