Updating to 4.6 from 4.5.x

[Luciann]

Seems like the last stable release is 4.6 but it doesn’t show for me in the acp, is there any way to update? I’m still on 4.5.x and it says it’s already up to date.

Manual download from the client area, upload to your site via FTP (after taking a file/database backup)

This is due to it being a soft release just like 4.5. So it’s slowly rolling out to everyone.

Please don’t make the mistake of updating and then coming back to the forums to find nothing is working and that you depend on certain plugins/themes.

Any estimation on when will this version be available to everyone, stable and ready to use? Maybe comparing this to when 4.5 released?

You can download it right now from the client area. You can also try doing it through ACP and use the check for updates/something is wrong and see if it picks up the update.

It won't detect the update at the moment.

After you replace the new 4.6 files you should go yoursite.com/admin/upgrade 

Then finish the steps.
