It is not clear to me how you upgrade the JA Wall template and plugins. Has this to be done via the JA extensions manager?

Agreed. I bought JA Wall. And I’m looking for instructions no how to install/use it for both:

• quickstart
• manual one part (framework, extension, plug-in) at a time

Thanks!

I normally uninstall the current template and install the new one, and install the plugin over the old one. Now you could use the ext. manager to update your template and plugins also. But most of the time you might run into a database error. So I go with whats works for me.

But you should backup your files before doing anything… I copy my template folder to my local computer before doing anything just in case something go wrong I can upload the folder again… This is what I did to upgrade the 1.0.1 template to 1.0.2…

Now I am trying to figure out how to add a new module position to this template without everything disappearing…

Thx. But I suspect there is a real upgrade way to handle this making use of the functionality of joomla auto-upgrade?

the documentation is here : http://joomla25-templates.joomlart.com/ja_wall/en/documentation. Although it is pretty ‘spartan’ (is that english?) it is usefull.
