How to update from previous nulled version?
For me, it was a matter of simply over-writing the existing installation files. Basically, zipping all the files up and extracting them over the top of the current WHMCS.
My advice is to backup the current installation and database (always a good measure).
Also, pay attention to how the files are extracting, sometimes it creates a new folder.. that's no good, it needs to actually overwrite the existing file/folder structure... depends how you are managing your files.
Depending on the version you are updating from, you may need to remove the "install" folder (which gets created upon extraction of the new files).
Don't delete the "install" folder, unless WHMCS tells you to..
Basically:
- Download the files
- Upload the ZIP file to your WHMCS installation folder
- Unzip the ZIP file (make sure it didn't create a new folder)
- If it did create a new folder, head into that folder, zip up the entire contents as a new zip and re-extract over the installation folder
or
- Unzip them on your computer first, enter into the created directory, and zip up all the files
- Once the files are all overwritten on WHMCS, head to your WHMCS admin url
- You'll either be taken through an upgrade assistant or WHMCS will tell you to delete the install folder
- Delete the install folder
That's it!
