Title: Reinstalling
Post by: Gwenwyfar on June 02, 2017, 08:54:46 PM
Does deleting the DB and all files suffice for a clean reinstall? Also, is the beta 3 install package on the download site all good now?

I already used the first ver. broken upgrade patch, so just want to be sure it's all reset.

Yes.

Thank you :)

Ps: I meant to ask if now the download section has the newest files, since the first upgrade didn't, but I guess I'll find out. Installing SMF doesn't take half an hour like certain other software anyway  :)

It should, but if you want to guarantee that you have the very latest, you can always get them by clicking the big, green Download button on https://github.com/SimpleMachines/SMF2.1 (https://github.com/SimpleMachines/SMF2.1).

Yes, I'm very aware of that button as well as the ones on the git client I have, but I wanted to know about the status of the file on the site. Thank you.
