VisioList 1.0

Mark · Aug 27, 2013

First, thanks to everyone who helped test and ensure the initial Visiolist 1.0 installs and updates nicely and is relatively bug free (we squashed all we could find).

VisioList 1.0 is another major milestone for the project, adding several new features and cleaning up some long overdue issues. We are pleased with how things are going and look forward to an exciting burst in development activity for the remainder of 2013.

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING CAREFULLY BEFORE DOWNLOADING THE BUNDLE:

Fresh Install Instructions
http://visiolist.com/docs/Installing-visiolist

Update Instructions Method 1 - Not recommended for this upgrade but it will work:
- Take a backup of your files and database in case something goes wrong
- Upload and replace all the files from the update bundle ( VisioList-UPGRADE1.0.zip ) via FTP and run yoursite.com/install/update.php from your browser

----------------------------------------------------

Update Instructions Method 2 - Fresh And Clean Upgrade *Recommended*
(despite the long, detailed instructions, this method is very easy, keeps your site files organized and has big security benefits, for those reasons this is my favorite method for major updates like this one where nearly every file has been modified)

- Take a backup of your files and database in case something goes wrong

- Upload a temporary index.php file to show your visitors that the site is being worked on.

Login with FTP
/skins/ - rename to skins_OLD
/images/ - rename to images_OLD

delete everything other than:

index.php
settings_sql.php
settings_buttons.php
button_config.php
/banners/
/cache/
/plugins/
/screens/
/languages/english.php (and any other languages you might use)
* any other files you have personally added

* the renaming of the /skins/ and /images/ folder is so you can reintegrate changes in your child themes and your images while still being able to use any new images included in the new version. more on this soon.

download the zip below ( VL1.0-Fresh.zip ), extract files, and upload to your server taking care not to overwrite the files listed above.

run the update script at yourdomain.com/install/update.php

now copy your /images_OLD/ folder back into /images/, this will overwrite the default images and get all of your buttons back in place.

re-integrate your skin templates by copying your /child/ folder into /skins/parabola/
(this is why all template edits should be made in a child theme)

replace the user.css file in skins/parabola/ with skins_OLD/parabola/user.css to re-integrate your CSS overrides.

upload index.php from fresh bundle overwriting your temporary file which alerted users about the upgrade.

If you have added any other javascript or css you will need to ensure those files are in place. If you are customizing templates you will need to compare against the core to ensure you are not missing any new tags and changes.

Finally, check over all your plugins to ensure they are current. If you have any errors after upgrading be sure and disable all plugins to help isolate the cause.

if you have any questions, do not hesitate to ask. Please provide clear errors, and steps to reproduce to help us maximize our support efforts

Basti · Sep 4, 2013

Do you still have it? Mark was moving our servers yesterday/this morning so it might been that

neometal · Sep 4, 2013

Yes I have! If it is ok I will write on the forum

))

Basti · Sep 4, 2013

Well error means host (site) is not reachable. It works over here, so dunno what exactly is up. Until it also works for you again, you can supress the error like this
sources/admin.php

Code:

      $latest_version = file_get_contents('http://visiolist.com/version.txt');

to

Code:

      $latest_version = @file_get_contents('http://visiolist.com/version.txt');

Mark · Sep 4, 2013

this was no doubt caused by our server move

Anna · Sep 9, 2013

My dear fiance tried to update our lists tonight and got it to work on the 2 smaller ones. The larger and most edited one got an Error 500 php though. He is still investigating, but was wondering if you guys had a spontanous idea about what may have caused this?

Mark · Sep 9, 2013

error 500 is apache internal server error, that is usually caused by file/group ownership but your error log will provide exact details.

sultime · Sep 10, 2013

Thank you for this new version

Basti · Oct 27, 2013

Please check your error log. Just logged into a test list and the latest version is showing.

Morus · Oct 27, 2013

I've updated it, all errors I corrected its just not showing that the new version has been installed.

I've got that line in source/admin.php

Code:

$phpversion = phpversion();
    if (ini_get('allow_url_fopen')) {
      $latest_version = file_get_contents('http://visiolist.com/version.txt');
    }
    else {
      $latest_version = '?';
    }
   
    $TMPL['admin_content'] .= "{$LNG['a_main_your']}: {$TMPL['version']}<br />{$LNG['a_main_latest']}: {$latest_version}<br />\n<a href=\"http://visiolist.com\">{$LNG['a_main_new']}</a><br /><br />";
