Updating the Application
The application can be automatically updated by initiating its installation in the admin panel under "Site Settings / Updates".
During the installation process, each action performed is logged in the log file /files/logs/update.log.
Backups of files are created in the /!update/ directory while working with them.
The following sections are not affected by the update:
- /config/
- /custom/
- /files/ - new files and directories may be created
- /plugins/
- /public_html/custom/
- /public_html/files/ - new files and directories may be created
- /public_html/plugins/
- /public_html/themes/
- /themes/
- /vendor/
The user-facing part of the website becomes temporarily unavailable as the special "Maintenance Mode" is enabled. The message displayed to users can be modified in the "Site Settings / General Settings / Site Offline" section.
It is also recommended to avoid using the admin panel during the installation, and particularly to suspend the moderator's work.
