Hi Jeremy, I still can't successfully use the upgrader or drag a file from the period after March 21st. However, files dated before that (including 5.1.7 and earlier prerelease versions) can be upgraded to 5.1.8 successfully.
If I hadn't been so impatient to see all the new features in action, I could have waited - but the export workaround was mentioned at just the right time. cmari On Sunday, April 19, 2015 at 2:06:57 AM UTC-7, Jeremy Ruston wrote: > > Hi Neil, Camarillo and Duarte > > Please can you confirm the version number of the wikis before you tried > the upgrade?
