nuBuilder Update Guide - smalos/nuBuilder4-Code-Library GitHub Wiki

To update nuBuilder follow these steps:

• Backup your database (See here for instructions). The Backup consists of a single file containing all nuBuilder tables and data.

• Backup your nuBuilder files (E.g. add them to an archive 202101028_bk_nubuilder.zip)

• Pull the latest nuBuilder files from either Github or Sourceforge. Alternatively, use a subversion client to obtain the latest files.

• Overwrite the existing nuBuilder files

• Log into nuBuilder, go to the Database tab, hit the 'Update' button. Follow the steps in the wizard.

• If all goes well you should see a message: "You will need to log in again for the changes to take effect."

• After updating, test your site carefully to verify there are not any problems. The Github commit/change history information is valuable when trying to figure out where something changed.

💡 The recommendation is to have a test environment to test changes before applying them to the production environment.
