There is 862 files changed according to this:
https://github.com/Cotonti/Cotonti/compare/0.9.13...0.9.16

how do upgrade all the 862 needed files?

surely not one by one, so how do you chose the files you need to upgrade?>

Alex, i just read.

i have a problem from the first step:

  1. Copy the updated files into your site's tree. Overwrite existing files with updated ones.

    How do i chose the 800 files? manually? or just update them all? (except the skins?)
    can i update 0.9.13 directly to 0.9.16

Yes, just update them all.

If you have not modified any files that are present at in the distribution, it's should be well.

You do not need to be updated step by step. Upload the latest version of Siena.

Do not forget about backup, in case something goes wrong...

No need for 'step-by-step' really )

Antar: just add list.php from any previous release (located in root) if you really need to keep redirects from 'list' to 'page'. Imho if you've used Siena long enough, search engines should have memorized that all 'list.php?c=cat' links have permanently moved to 'page.php?c=cat'.

Ok, will try add the list.php.
i don't think step by step needed, since the "updater" applies all the needed patches automaticly.

i dont care to move to page.php, but the website is 10 years old, and has many external links that will not wrok, i think.

List.php should do the job

ok, all works, thanks.
Just updated from scratch, and all worked.

Have another problem with that update:
All active links in forums became just texts, example here: http://subs.com.ru/forums.php?m=posts&p=7679#7679

Anyone knows why that can be?

 

Added 2 minutes later:

actually, i see same here, the links stay texts by default. that's different behaviour than i had before... how do i make them to be url's automatically?

I was wondering the same, if there was a way on github to download only the changed files, of course while maintaining the file structure.. because i've changed a few files here and there including heavily modifying all the tpl files in the modules for pages / forums etc and i would hate to accidentally overwrite them or loose something there..

You should not modify tpl files for modules or plugins but rather copy them to themes/your_theme/modules or themes/your_theme/plugins and modify them there, so you don't loose any changes later.

May the Source be with you!

Oh wow, had no idea that was possible, so if the tpl file is present in the themes folder... then it will load from there instead? genius !
