Hi Sergey,

1 - Is there a list of the improvements, changes, etc. that are in this upgrade version? If so, where is it. If not, please provide us with one.

2 - By following the instructions and uploading the upgrade files, we will overwrite any changes/mods/personalization that we or you have done to those files. Right? What do you advise to not have this happen?

3 - Any other advice about upgrading so as to not overwrite/erase changes we've made?

Thanks!

Hello Steve,

#1 I'm going to prepare a change list and post it here.

#2 Yes, so there is only one way it is remade all changes again.

#3 The one way to prevent any problems with custom modifications it's making all modifications as plugin.

Excellent. When do you think you might be able to post it?

Can you also post a list of the files that have been changed?

What?! Are you saying that if we ever make any changes, we should plan that we might, or most likely will need to make the same changes again after each "upgrade". That's terrible, and almost impossible!

I don't remember all the changes that I made to my directory, and I'm sure that all other customers who made changes don't remember all of them either... and I don't know most of the changes that eSyndiCat staff made, or to which files, etc.!

This is something that should be made clear as part of all changes that are made by eSyndiCat staff, and with all solutions posted in the forum, etc.

I don't think it's possible to make all modifications as plugins... is it?

This is something that should have been PROMINENTLY noted, in many places, especially when solutions are posted, eSyndiCat staff makes changes to our files, etc.

If it seems like this is disturbing to me... IT IS! This is VERY poor planning, preparation, etc.!

Have you done many, or even any custom changes to the script?

If so, do they all still work and/or display properly?

Holy Cow I havent even been able to get my 2.3.3 off the ground. All the mods etc... now there is an upgrade that kills the mods? I have to agree with Top Web Names...

Now my next question would be can you upgrade from 2.2.06 to 2.3.4????

No the test directory is normal install, I usually just reapply all the mods...There isn`t really that many files in this upgrade I would have altered judging by initial look

Well I created a new dir with the 2.3.04 files and installed to a different DB.. I see nothing for importing from 2.2.06. PLEASE make an import available i dont want to have to go through the long way all over again.


EDIT - Also another questions, will the custom payments still work with this version or has something changed to where we cant use those anymore?
