 +====== Upgrading mooSocial ======

 +Upgrading mooSocial is even a simpler process than installing. There are a few things you need to know and do before the upgrading process.
 +
 +=== Know ===
 +
 +  * Access to your web server (via shell, cPanel, DirectAdmin,​ Plesk or FTP)
 +  * An FTP client such as [[https://​filezilla-project.org|FileZilla]]
 +  * Your Web browser of choice
 +
 +=== Do ===
 +
 +  * Download the latest release available of mooSocial
 +  * Unzip the downloaded file on your hardrive
 +  * Make sure to backup your files and database before upgrading
 +  * Do take your site offline using "Take Site Offline"​ and "​Offline Message"​ in System Settings
 +  * Clear Global Caches after upgraded successfully

 +===== File Upload =====
 +
 +Upload all files and folders within mooSocial directory to the same location where the previous version was installed so that the new files overwrites existing ones.

 +
 +===== Upgrading Wizard =====

 +Run the Upgrading Wizard by accessing the Upgrade URL in the web browser. This should be [[http://​www.yourdomain.com/​upgrade|http://​www.yourdomain.com/​upgrade]] or [[http://​www.yourdomain.com/​index.php/​upgrade|http://​www.yourdomain.com/​index.php/​upgrade]] (without mod_rewrite)
