Cumulus update

Post by Vicente »

Steve, when I upgrade from version 1.83 to Cumulus 1.84 happened that everything translated into Spanish xxxxT.htm files, these files were changed again to the English language.

How can be avoided in future updates?

Greetings,
Vicente

Any custom *****T.html files I have / use I keep a copy of, when you upgrade they get written over and then I copy my ones back.

Might be an idea if Steve got the installer to check with the user if he / she wants the T files overwritten or left alone.

Well, yes, I could I suppose, but the idea is that the standard files 'belong' to Cumulus and you should use 'extra files' for custom pages. This is why there is the option to not upload the standard files.

Good practise to always take a copy of the Cumulus directory, before updating, when dealing with Beta software :-)

Alternatively, place the custom T files in a separate folder remote from Cumulus.
That way they cannot get corrupted by any update, important if using Vista!
