How to upgrade from 0.4 to 0.5
( quick instructions until when/if a script is made )
Move your 0.4 folder out of the way. Keep the config.php and copy it to the new bblog folder.
then add to config.php:
define('BLOGURL','http://www.example.com/blog/');
define('BBLOGURL',BLOGURL.'bblog/');
// uncommnt if using clean urls
// define('CLEANURLS',TRUE);
// define('URL_POST',BLOGURL.'article/%postid%/');
// define('URL_SECTION',BLOGURL.'section/%sectionname%/');
Chmod compiled_templates and favorites.xml
run SQL:
ALTER TABLE `bB_comments` ADD `title` VARCHAR( 255 ) NOT NULL ,
ADD `type` ENUM( 'comment', 'trackback' ) NOT NULL;
CREATE TABLE `bB_plugins` (
`id` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment,
`type` varchar(50) NOT NULL default 'admin',
`name` varchar(60) NOT NULL default '',
`ordervalue` decimal(3,2) NOT NULL default '50.00',
`nicename` varchar(127) NOT NULL default '',
`description` text NOT NULL,
`template` varchar(100) NOT NULL default '',
`help` mediumtext NOT NULL,
`authors` varchar(255) NOT NULL default '',
`licence` varchar(50) NOT NULL default '',
PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
);
INSERT INTO `bB_config` VALUES ('', 'PING', 'false');
ALTER TABLE `bB_comments` ADD `deleted` ENUM( 'false', 'true' ) DEFAULT 'false' NOT NULL ;
Once you have logged in to bBlog, go to the plugins menu and click 'scan for new plugins'
Edit your posts in phpmyadmin, and make sure the section field has :
:5:2: instead of 5:2
While you're there, look in the bB_config table, and look at the TEMPLATE row. You should have a folder with that name in your templates folder, either grey or green.
look at the included templates, one major thing has changed:
{posts}
....
{/posts}
becomes
{getrecentposts assign=posts}
{foreach from=$posts item=post}
...
{/foreach}
Same sort of changes for comments, and single post, look at the included templates for examples.
