Upload the SMF 2.0.2 Update pack via FTP.
If done, open the following link: yoursite.com/update.php!
Then you can begin the update.

It's so simple...


Modified:
You can also back up your site by saving the files and the database to your computer.

The easiest way to update from one minor version to the next would be directly from the admin panel. It should give you a notice to update, including a link you can follow to update.

The next option would be to update like installing a mod. Just grab the patch from http://custom.simplemachines.org/upgrades/ and install it like any modification through the package manager.
