Great Jobs! Will SMF upgrade from 1.x.x to 2.x.x in the future as painless as from 1.1.7 to 1.1.8?
That would be great for everyone using 1.x.x.

Keep up the good jobs!

I take it you didn't read or look at the first post of this thread, I'm sure it contained two files that were only the affected files for respective versions of SMF.

Of course not. This is the "Community" - I don't trust any files posted here. There is a page called "Simple Machines Downloads" - no login, no dubious attachments, just the files I want. Is it that complicated?

The person who posted these packages is a Developer, more then trustable... ;)

Anyways, you should see a link in your Admin CP home to upgrade your version of SMF by clicking the link and it will download the package and you apply it, and done...

Well the files posted and displayed in the first post is by the Lead Developer of SMF.  Which is the person who created the package and also created the whole file you downloaded from the download section.  So your level of mistrust is a little misguided and amusing.  I think you've made it overly complicated, but that is your prerogative.

Considering that Compuart is the one who put the files on the downloads page, and placed the attachments on his post, and the attachments haven't been edited, nor has the post, i'd go as far as to say that you can trust Compuart's packages.

You can also update easily through the package manager with an officially released update package if you go to Admin > Packages and click the download link in the alert box that pops up.

Ok - so for one useable update package, I have to register, to search the Community, to know and trust Compuart, Grudge, Thantos, Owdy, Meriadoc, bostasp... Are you serious?

Well 1,000's of other users don't seem to have a problem working out a person with the Lead Developer and developer badge posting an official patch is a person of some notoriety and trustworthy within the SMF project.

It's on the main news section of the site, it's in the main news section of the forums.  I would assume a person, if having issues, will have to register to ask a support question so would have little trouble finding their way around.

Huh?  The internal AdminCP update process sole use is for running systems.  To patch while on the fly and retain any custom modifications.

FfdG,

The files are there for you to see any changes made. The first post contains a package manager upgrade, which will show you any changes it is making. It is just a compressed file which with the proper software (since windows doesn't support opening .tar.gz by default), you can open the file Scratch that, the files where .zip files, You can open them anyways without the need for additional software.
You could as well easily do a diff (If you know how to read a diff) between SMF 1.1.7 and SMF 1.1.8 to see the changes for yourself.

If you can't trust us, I don't know what else to say really. You are free to download and view the source for yourself.
