Copyright (C) 2009 iDevDirect.com L.L.C. ========================================================================================= IMPORTANT NOTES BEFORE PERFORMING THE UPDATE 1. The currency and localization features have been updated. Your currency symbol will be reset to the dollar sign ($). After update if you're using a different symbol you will need to update it in your admin center. Setup & Tools > Site Configuration > Currency Symbol 2. We've now standardized with the iso-8859-1 character set. Your admin center will now use this character set and your front-end will need to use this character set also if you're using the language packs module. If you previously changed the templates to utf-8 you will need to change this back in your front-end templates. Edit this file via FTP: /templates/header.tpl Make sure the charset is set to iso-8859-1. EXAMPLE: 3. We're adding a new INDEX to one of the database tables to greatly improve performance in the tracking logs. If you have 100,000+ traffic logs in your system this update will take some time. Even as long as a few minutes depending on how many logs you have. Please expect a login delay when you first login to your admin center after update. Do not interrupt this process. ========================================================================================= UPDATE INSTRUCTIONS Before starting the patch update, be sure to backup your MySQL database. Step 1: Logout of your iDevAffiliate admin center if you are logged in. Step 2: Upload the files contained in this ZIP package to your current installation via FTP. Allow the files to overwrite your existing files. Be sure to use AUTO-DETECT mode. Step 3: Login to your iDevAffiliate admin center once the files have been uploaded. --------------------------- This completes your update. ========================================================================================= Questions?
