Team Thanked: 52 kez	Basically you have to follow the upgrade instructions for every version (0.0.6, 0.6.1 etc) until you get to the latest version. But in short you can do this: 1. Make a backup of files and database (!) 2. Remove old files, except datas, skins and plugins 3. Upload new files, don't forget to set permissions and empty the datas/cache/templates dir 4. Run all the SQL update scripts, beginning with 0.0.5 -> 0.0.6, then 0.0.6 -> 0.6.1 etc. You may have to modify your skin. If you use the default (sed-light) just remove the old files and replace them with the new ones as well. Same goes for plugins. Its better to have the latest files, but if you have custom plugins you shouldn't remove those.
