Updating Formulize

  1. Backup your files and database.

  2. Deploy the new files to your website. If you cloned the GitHub repository when installing Formulize, then you can do this:
     # stash any local changes in your site that aren't committed yet
     git stash
    
     # fetch the release you want to update to, ie: 8.02
     git fetch origin v8.02
    
     # update the code in your site with that release
     git rebase v8.02
    
     # restore your local changes
     git stash pop
    
  3. Make sure the folders that need to be writable are writable by the web server

  4. Login to your website. If a database and configuration update is required, you will be redirected to the admin side where you can click a button to apply the update. Backup your files and database before applying updates.
