Updating from previous versions

Updating the RapidWeaver Plugin

To update the plugin simply do as described under "Installation" – RapidWeaver will automatically replace the current plugin with the new version.

Important: To take advantage of the changes to the plugin and the new WebYep System, you will need to re-publish (re-export) all WebYep pages of your website.

Updating the webyep-system folder on the web server

Use your favorite FTP client application to perform the following steps:

  1. Backup the contents of the data folder located in the webyep-system folder on the web server (i.e. download the files in that folder and save them on your local hard disc).
  2. Backup the contents of the opt folder located in the webyep-system/program folder, if you have installed additional software like a WYSIWYG editor there.
  3. Backup the configuration file, config-inc.php located in the webyep-system folder.
  4. Rename the webyep-system folder on the web server – e.g. rename it to webyep-system-old.
  5. Install the new webyep-system folder on the web server (upload it to the same location as the old webyep-system folder was installed in).
  6. Transfer your settings (e.g. username and password) from the backup config-inc.php to the new one (inside the new webyep-system folder).
  7. Remove the empty data folder from the new webyep-system folder.
  8. Move the old data folder from the old webyep-system folder into the new one on the server (webyep-system-old/datawebyep-system/data).
  9. If you have installed additional software like a WYSIWYG editor:
    • Remove the empty opt folder from the new webyep-system/program folder.
    • Move the old opt folder from the old webyep-system folder into the new one on the server (webyep-system-old/program/optwebyep-system/program/opt).
    • Instead, you can of course do a fresh install of the most recent versions of the software you had installed in the opt folder.

Alternatively you can use the WebYep Online Installer https://secure.obdev.at/WebYepInstaller/ to update the WebYep installation on your web server.
