Hello Robert,

Do you want to update your Easyblog to the latest 3.9 version? We can help you install it (3.9.24862) because you cannot download the 3.9 version since we have released the Easyblog 5. Please advise.

Yes. I would like to update to the latest 3.9 version.

I would also like to move to Easyblog 5, if that is possible.

Hi Robert Barkin,

May I ask whether do you want to update to 3.9 or 5.0? Please advise.

I would like to update to 5.0

Hey Robert,

Updating to EasyBlog 5 is pretty easy.

1. Download the latest version from http://stackideas.com/dashboard .
2. Then, uninstall the current version of EasyBlog on the site.
3. Unpublish all easyblog plugins and modules
4. Install EasyBlog 5

Your data will remain intact.

I can go right to EB5, even if I have 3.9.15790 on my site now. I thought I had to update to the latest 3.9 before I can move to EB5?

Yes, that's correct. You can still go with 5.0 directly

I get this message when I try to install:

Column count doesn't match value count at row 1 SQL=INSERT INTO `jos_easyblog_configs` VALUES ('dbversion','3.8.0'), ('scriptversion','3.8.0')

I've included the username and password in site details

I'm not sure what to try next. The forum said that I should upgrade to 3.9.24862, before I upgrade to EB5. Then go through a complicated porting of database files. That's what I was trying to do, when you said upgrade directly to EB5. But I get the error message.

Maybe I should just stick with 3.9.24862? If so, please send it to me. Or should I just stick with what I have?

Not sure what you want me to do.

Hello Robert.

Can you provide us with Database and FTP access so we can check on this? and I have installed EasyBlog 3.9.x on your site

I'm including in site details the username and password for the ftp. It is the same for the cPanel. I included the URL for the cPanel in the optional information area. Let me know if you need additional information.

Thanks for your help.

Robert

Hey Robert,

My colleague have already upgraded your site to the latest 3.9. Am I missing anything here?

I was hoping to upgrade to EB5. Is that possible? Isn't that the version I should be using?

Hey Robert,

Do you want us to upgrade to EasyBlog 5 for you? Sorry, but a little lost here because in your reply above, it seems like you wanted us to update to the latest 3.9.x

Yes. It would be great if you could upgrade me to EB5.

Hello Robert.

I have helped you with the installation. The reason you hit this error message when tried to install EasyBlog 5 on your site because your jos_easyblog_configs table have an extra column.

Hope this help

I appear to have EasyBlog 5.0.16. This is very good.

Thanks for your help.

Robert:)
