Upgrade without loosing jsp-customizations?

[Anni]

hi,

I've just downloaded the new version of konakart but am reluctant to install it. while there are upgrade scripts for the database, I'm unsure if my customized jsps are also kept (though I guess not).

so, is it possible to run the update and keep my customizations just like that or should I backup them first? (i.e. if the jsps in general still look the same)

regards,
anni

Hello Anni,

It's well worth upgrading - especially if you're not live yet - as there are some nice new features that will help you to customise the functionality and look and feel of KonaKart... not to mention a few bug fixes.

I would always recommend backing up all your code and data as a general principle before any upgrade.

Indeed, you may find it easier to install the new version of KonaKart to a fresh new location and then move all your jsp and java customizations across to the new installation.   You'll need to merge your jsp changes with the new jsps in order to take advantage of their new "skinability".

Please refer to the web site for further guidance:

Since you have asked many questions about customizing the java code, you might also be interested to review this:

Have a good weekend upgrading
