Upgrading
Important: Ensure that you've taken your server offline before attempting to upgrade Jomres. This is because Jomres will try to remove certain files that shouldn't be left on your server once installation/upgrade is complete (mainly install_jomres.php) so you don't want anybody browsing your server until you're ready.
Before upgrading your Jomres installation, make sure you have a backup of all your files and especially your database!
Note that the Updates and Plugin manager functionality cannot be translated by editing the language files. This is because much of the information is pulled directly from the updates server and is only available in English. To reduce ambiguity and confusion we've chosen to not include the text for these two features in the language file.
As of Jomres v3.1.3 there is a new Upgrade process. In the main panel of Administrator -> Components -> Jomres you will see a new button Upgrades. This feature allows the system, if it can, to automatically download and apply the most recent copy of Jomres available to your system. Be aware that once it has run you will need to run install_jomres.php to apply any database changes that are required.
If you cannot see this Upgrades button then please ensure that CURL is enabled on your server.
Alternatively, you might want to download the executable installer, and after uninstalling Jomres via the CMS component manager run it to upload the files from your desktop. To use the executable, see here
