Hello,
I've "inherited" a SMF with package 2.0.13, templates 2.0 and language files 2.0.
Trying to patch this version to 2.0.14 predicts some errors with the load.php (index.php?action=admin;area=packages) which makes me uncertain about the best path for completing the patch. I'm reluctant to conduct a complete new installation.
Is it necessary to patch the templates and languages files manually before patching the SMF to the next version or are these files included in the package or won't make any trouble?
I can download the newest language files from SMF website but there are only 2.0.15 versions available. So, will they also run with the 2.0.13 Version before I patch it step by step to 2.0.15?
Thank you for your support!
Just address the issues the errors give you by manually adding the code (if you know how). If you don't know how, and do not care about current mods, theme, etc then replacing current files with a 2.0.15 package will do it, however make sure to make a full backup first.
