Easy way to upgrade 1.3.8 to 1.3.8a

Hi,

Is there a quick and easy way to upgrade from ver 1.3.8 to 1.3.8a? From what I have read the DB is the same but I cant seem to find a list of changes between those versions, it only goes back to ver1.3.7.

Brad.

So just overwrite those files and the upgrade will be done?

You are making full backups before you do anything, right?
And ... given your apprehension, I would hope you're considering testing your upgrade in a test area and not directly on a live site ...

There were no significant changes in templating between 1.3.8 and 1.3.8a.

You should really be asking that question to the person you're planning to buy from.
