Upgrading

For upgrading from a previous version of CouchCMS to version 2.0:

  1. Unzip couchcms-2.0.zip to your local system.
  • Within the couchcms-2.0 folder thus extracted will be found a folder named couch.
  • From within this couch folder:
    1. Delete the snippets and uploads folders.
    2. Delete the config.example.php file.

  1. Rename the ckeditor folder found in your existing Couch installation's includes folder to ckeditor_old (or delete it completely).

  2. Upload the remaining contents of the couch folder of step 1 to your existing installation's couch folder (or whatever you might have renamed it to).

  • This way we'll be overwriting all existing Couch core files with the newer version, while preserving anything you might have added to the snippets and uploads folders.
  1. If you already have a commercial license for your website, append the following line to your site's couch/config.php file:
define( 'K_PAID_LICENSE', 1 );

IMPORTANT: If you have chosen as a security measure to rename the index.php file to something else, do make sure to delete your existing renamed index.php and then rename the new index.php to your name of choice.
