Thanks Jim, We are on 0.6.9 of Radiant at the moment and are planning to update to 0.8 soon, but I wanted to update Page_Attachments first. Having never updated any of the extensions I am not sure on the upgrade procedure. Should we remove the extension and then install the latest version with Git?

I believe there were some changes to add fields to page_attachments but otherwise everything should work. Step 1: Back up your database Step 2: Back up your filesystem Step 3: upgrade There's no reason that updating the code would lose track of the page/ attachment association. I'm not sure if there are any gotchas. On what version of Radiant is this project? -Jim Jim Gay http://www.saturnflyer.com On Jul 1, 2009, at 4:44 AM, Sharon Clift wrote: > Thanks for the reply Jason. > > I was hoping someone had already been through the process with this > particular extension. > > We have a large number of attachments saved this way (the files are > uploaded to sub folders of public\page_attachments via the extension > and > referenced in the page attachment table within the database). it would > be a nightmare these were lost and I am just a bit worried that > removing > the extension and reinstalling will require all of the images to be > reattached. > > Has anyone gone through an upgrade of Page_Attachments and if so are > there any gotchas? > > Many thanks > > Sharon > > Message: 9 > Date: Tue, 30 Jun 2009 04:31:38 -0400 > From: Jason Garber <[email protected]> > Subject: Re: [Radiant] Updating Page Attachments > To: [email protected] > Message-ID: <[email protected]> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII; format=flowed; delsp=yes > > I always just delete the extension files and reinstall.
