Invision Community 5: A video walkthrough creating a custom theme and homepage By Matt Thursday at 04:02 PM
Sater Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 Hi,I'm using 2.1.7, although have active licensing for IPB.My 2.1.7 is not Unicode and it's not English forum.What should be the upgrade path to get to 4.0? I've tried to use 4.0 on top of 2.1.7, but seems it's not supported.Thanks!
Management Charles Posted November 17, 2014 Management Posted November 17, 2014 You would need to upgrade to 3.4.7 first. The 4.0 upgrade libraries do not go back that far.
Sater Posted November 17, 2014 Author Posted November 17, 2014 You would need to upgrade to 3.4.7 first. The 4.0 upgrade libraries do not go back that far.What about changing to Unicode? When do I need to do that? (If I need to do it by myself at all)
Rhett Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 Upgrade to 3.4.7, then 4.0, the utf8 converter is built into 4.0. (No need to do that as an extra step. )
AndyF Posted November 19, 2014 Posted November 19, 2014 Just a sidenote before (if you've not already done the upgrade) decide if you want to keep either avatars or profile pictures as there's only one image per member in later 3x versions compared to 2x. Full backup recommended then simply as indicated upgrade to 347 then if you wanted to, upgrade to 4
Sater Posted November 20, 2014 Author Posted November 20, 2014 Upgraded to 3.4.7 successfully. But when tried to convert to utf8 as first step to upgrade to 4.0 B2 - all text dissapeared....

Soniceffect Posted November 20, 2014 Posted November 20, 2014 Im assuming this was a test database you were trying to upgrade and not your live one?
Sater Posted November 21, 2014 Author Posted November 21, 2014 Im assuming this was a test database you were trying to upgrade and not your live one? Of course. What's strange, I was not able to reproduce. On next try it looks it was translated good, but another issue appeared - I opened a bug for this.
