Thanks for the update.
I could update my forum without any problems

You are welcome

do we really have to give this permission (777)?

It depends on hosting settings. PHP should simply have writing access to these directories. If PHP runs in safe mode, one should usually give 777 permission. Otherwise, 755 is enough. Anyway, you should worry if something doesn't work (you can't upload avatars or obtain an error message like "cache is not writable").

If i update the new hotfixes my i 1.3, will be to 1.3.1?

You mean, if the hotfixes are already integrated? Yes, they are. And the old installed hotfixes will not be shown anymore (because they are now "hardcoded").

There is a thing you should remember while upgrading. After owerwritting files verify that .../cache, .../img/avatars and .../extensions (for pun_repository) directories have enough write permissions (usually 777).

do we really have to give this permission (777) ? I updated my forum using ""updated files only package", and run the "database update" as requested. Everything worked fine while all the directories you mentioned above (except img/avatars) were in 755.

Should I change those directories' permission into 777 now? or I can just let it as is?

overwrite all the old file and go to index.php, but first backup old file and DB.

See the download archive.

What exactly did not work? Any error messages?

I don't remember exactly, but it had to do with updating the database. I did that, still no luck. It kept requesting the same thing.

Nevermind, it is updated now:D I setup the board to automatically check for updates and hotfixes.
Thank you for your time, cheers!

Bye

And will there be an "updated files only package"?

That would be great. I'm not very fond of "full reinstall".
