Upgrade Sweetcron to Lifepress
Q. Is lifepress similar to an upgrade of sweetcron? Do I need to overwrite all my sweetcron files with the lifepress files or are both
basically the same?
Q. Will the current theme I have for sweetcron work with lifepress?
Without knowing anything about any modifications you may have made which could complicate matters, the answer is simply YES
Lifepress is basically a copy of the last official version of Sweetcron.
But if you modified core files in the Sweetcron installation, you should make sure that you don’t miss a single
spot. Use a diff tool or something that can compare directories and step over every file when you copy the new files over.
If you have a heavily modified installation the upgrade can get very complicated.
Otherwise, it’s just like an “installation” again. Make sure you don’t overwrite your modified files and your configuration files like
config.php and database.php.
If you copy the new files over the old files you should have Lifepress upgraded. There isn’t a special update routine and no database
modification that needs to be done. But, it goes without saying really, always make a full backup first of your sweetcron installation before upgrading your Lifepress, so you can always retore the old Sweetcron again if anything goes wrong, and try again with Lifepress.
