News Box Manager v2.0.0 [Support Thread]

[shags38]

@shags38, a couple of things:

1) The current version of News Box Manager (v3) is v3.0.5.
2) Version 3.0.0 and later support Zen Cart versions 1.5.6 and later (additional notifications/functions added)

Thanks Cindy - I guess I should have read that rather large header at the top of the readme in large letters - for v1.5.6 upwards !! doh!!

Hi Cindy,

I am finalizing an upgrade from 1.5.5f to 1.5.7b and will need to install your plugin v3.0.5 - I have not uninstalled 2.2.1 from the existing site as it is still live - the old database has tables for box_news and box_news_content. Just before making the switch to live for the 1.5.7b version of the site if I save the two tables mentioned, uninstall v2.2.1, install v3.0.5 and then copy the two tables into the new database will that work, i.e. will I retain the news articles?

So where can I find the latest version 3.0.5 please (it isn't showing in plugins that I can find and I didn't see it in the github https://github.com/lat9/news_box_manager/ - am I looking in the wrong place?

cheers,
Mike
