Upgrading From Other Releases
Upgrading to the new release from an older version couldn’t be easier, just follow the steps listed below:
You should see an upgrade message in your notification panel similar to the one below
If not visit the Configuration->Update page and hit the ‘Check’ button
From Configuration->Update hit the ‘Update’ button. This will download all files and restart the server.
Note: Updates take a few minutes and you should make sure your session does not expire as the server will not automatically restart.
