ineedhelp Well-known member Nov 15, 2011 #1 ...after upgrading it, is it possible to downgrade again if I encounter too many problems/bugs? And how much support can you guys offer? Thanks.

Paul B XenForo moderator Staff member Nov 15, 2011 #2 No, downgrading isn't an option, unless you keep a backup of your database, in which case you can just replace all the files and do a restore. Support for non-final releases is limited to the forums only. http://xenforo.com/community/threads/xenforo-1-1-0-release-candidate-1.23247/ Upvote 0 Downvote

Kier XenForo developer Staff member Nov 15, 2011 #3 If you back-up your database you can always restore that, but it's not possible to take any new data that has been added following the 1.1 upgrade and revert back to 1.0 with it. Upvote 0 Downvote

ineedhelp Well-known member Nov 15, 2011 #4 Yes, I shall of course be doing a full database backup beforehand. Clearly you guys have released this version after weeks and months of testing, so it should be ok, right? Yes bugs maybe found, but none would be fatal enough to cripple the site? Upvote 0 Downvote

Paul B XenForo moderator Staff member Nov 15, 2011 #6 It depends which add-ons you have installed and whether they have been updated to work with 1.1 or not. On a default installation, it is more than stable enough; I've been running it on my site since Beta 2. And of course it's been running on here for a while... Upvote 0 Downvote

ineedhelp Well-known member Nov 15, 2011 #7 Addon's are pretty minor, one can disable them until an update is available, IF they give any issues. Ok, so here goes... brb lol... Upvote 0 Downvote

ineedhelp Well-known member Nov 15, 2011 #8 Wow the upgrade took minutes less than 20 minutes including ftp and database backups! Everything seems to be functioning perfectly, templates reverted and re-customised! How do i get the Facebook like reply alerts that have been added to the new upgrade? Some members are getting them but not me? Even on here xenforo.com - I got them the 1st time, when you guys upgraded this site - then never again ? Upvote 0 Downvote

ineedhelp Well-known member Nov 16, 2011 #11 Why is daily statistics defaulted to 2011-10-xx ? Shouldn't the start date be yesterday, when I did the upgrade? Even if change it, it goes back once I login to cp again.. Upvote 0 Downvote

Ok done that. Shouldn't the stats be from when I launched the site and not 1995 ? The above is showing ALL TIME stats Upvote 0 Downvote

Paul B XenForo moderator Staff member Nov 16, 2011 #16 That looks correct then. The graph clearly starts from that date and the axis labelling shows that. The 1995-01-01 is just a placeholder date. Upvote 0 Downvote

Not working on my xenforo test import. Does it show the stats from the start of the forum? I tried using 'All Time' and it only shows the stats from the date I imported the vB forum. :| Upvote 0 Downvote
