New Version 1.3.7 -- looking for changed-files-only ZIP

Hi

Just wanted some feedback on the new version, I not long ago installed V1.3.5 on our test site and was waiting for the file changes to be released to upgrade to V1.3.6 !

Now V1.3.7 is coming out, will there be file changes only or will I have to install the full file set again ?

Also, when will a "Wish List" be included in a new release ?, a lot of us have been waiting for this a long time.

Regards

Chris

I think that 'changed files only' releases are a thing of the past.

Now when upgrading I just compare the new release with the old one (my current version).

I use WinMerge, which is a free comparison tool. It lets you compare directory structures as well as individual files.

You can find downloads and more info here: https://www.winmerge.org.

As far as I know this is 'the correct/best way' to perform upgrades.

For upgrading the "files" on your site, Alex is correct.

...and don't forget to run the Database upgrade via the installer tool.
