Installation and upgrade notes for Wikka 1.2


Important--Please Read:This version of WikkaWiki incorporates new support for modularized themes. A new file hierarchy is being introduced, and the old css/ directory is going away. It is imperative that you make a backup of your css/ directory BEFORE attempting to upgrade if you have customized your site theme! Failure to do so will most likely result in a loss of part or all of your theme changes. It's always good practice to back up both your Wikka install directory and your database prior to any upgrades.

Users running previous versions of Wikka are strongly recommended to upgrade or install a fresh package. Upgrading via the web-based wizard takes only a few minutes.

Upgrading from 1.1.6.7 or ealier

To upgrade from a previous 1.1.6.7 or ealier install, simply overwrite all existing files from the installation with a fresh 1.2 download. The upgrader will be invoked so you can verify existing DB and/or config settings. Please be sure to read the important upgrade notice at the top of this page before proceeding.

After upgrading, the css/ directory will no longer be used by WikkaWiki. Provided you have saved anything of importance in that directory, you may safely delete the contents of this directory after upgrading.

A new menu/navigation system has been implemented. If you have customized your navigation links in your wikka.config.php file, the upgrader should convert these links to the new format. If for some reason the upgrade wizard does not convert your links correctly, you will need to manually adjust the menu items under the config/ directory. Navigation links are no longer maintained in wikka.config.php. Additional information on the new menu system can be found here.
