Hi I have been directed here from a pre sales chat. I have jomsocial running but it is an old version 4.2.5 can I simply download and instal overtop this version to upgrade?
I am wondering if there was a version that had sql instructions that I would need to run inbetween?
Thanks

    Hi
    No! you can not update directly to latest version, Because there are new features added in new version and database changes.
    Kindly follow the steps mentioned here to update the Jomsocial to latest version
    Do not forget to take backup of site before start updates.

    Regards

      Thanks I went through to this doc which is talking about releases like 1.1x this is way lower than what I have.
      There seems to be no docs for my version it jumps from 1.1x to 4.3 so I do not know how to proceed.
      Thanks

            Could you confirm what version of Jomsocial you are using because in first post you shared 4.2.5 and after that 1.1x to 4.3 that makes confusion, I will share the update steps with you.
