ELGG UPGRADE INSTRUCTIONS 1. Download the new version of Elgg from elgg.org or a mirror. 2. Overwrite your existing Elgg files. Any modifications should have been written within plugins, so that they are not lost on overwriting. If this is not the case, take care to maintain your modifications, although Elgg is not guaranteed to work correctly in this instance. 3. Visit http://your-elgg-site-URL/upgrade.php 4. If you haven't already done so, install your crontab (UNIX ONLY) Cron is a UNIX command which allows programs to be run at set times of the day. If you want to take advantage of some of the maintenance functions such as log rotation or garbage collection, you must install a cron tab to trigger these events. There is an example crontab called crontab.example, edit this with the details of your site and install it with the command. crontab crontab.example
