|

-----------------------------------------------
|

|
| 4 |
It is essential that all users of flash node read these instructions!
|
| 5 |
Failure to do so may break your flash nodes!

Upgrading from 5.x.3.1 or earlier
|
| 9 |
---------------------------------
|
| 10 |
If you are currently using flash node 5.x.3.1 or earlier then you MUST update
|
| 11 |
your existing site to flash node 5.x.5.3 or later before moving to Drupal 6.
|
| 12 |
Drupal 6 makes a change to the {files} table that breaks the way earlier flash
|
| 13 |
node versions access it. Updating to the latest version of flash node 5.x will
|
| 14 |
patch flash node in preparation for this change. Users of flash node 5.x.4.0
|
| 15 |
and later do *not* need to upgrade their existing installations first.
|
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
To update earlier versions of flash node in preparation for upgrade to Drupal 6
|
| 18 |
please do the following:
|
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
1. Backup your database (or as a minimum, the {flashnode} table)
|
| 21 |
2. Download the latest flash node release from drupal.org/project/flashnode
|
| 22 |
3. Log in to your site as the administrator
|
| 23 |
4. Upload the flashnode files to your flash node module directory
|
| 24 |
5. Run update.php
|
| 25 |
6. Update 9 is applied to your flash node installation and fixes the issue
|
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
You can now proceed to upgrade your site (after checking other modules to see
|
| 28 |
if they have any specific upgrade requirements!) Follow the instructions below.
|
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
Upgrading from 5.x.4.0 and later
|
| 32 |
--------------------------------
|
| 33 |
Simply upgrade flash node along with the rest of your site using the normal
|
| 34 |
Drupal upgrade method (i.e. disable custom modules, upgrade the site, reinstall
|
| 35 |
custom modules, run update.php)
|
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
There are useful resources such as videos at drupal.org/drupal-6.0
|
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
Once you have installed flash node 6.x it is essential to run update.php as
|
| 40 |
flash node update 6000 must be applied. This update is required to make
|
| 41 |
existing flash nodes work. If flash node update 6000 is not applied existing
|
| 42 |
content will not display.
