Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt Monday at 02:04 PM
SJ77 Posted January 17, 2023 Posted January 17, 2023 Hi, Coming from 4.4 I am working on my test site for 4.7 I totally understand how to use ACP for fresh install of 3rd party plugins/apps. But I am having trouble with updating existing ones. I see (for example) that one of my applications has an available update. I don't know how to install the update. The marketplace in the ACP wants me to do a fresh install by removing the existing version. I don't want that, I just want to install a new version. What am I missing?
Stuart Silvester Posted January 17, 2023 Posted January 17, 2023 When you upgrade from a version older than 4.5, you'll get prompted to complete a Marketplace set up process. You should see an AdminCP notification for that, follow the instructions to match up your existing third party resources. SJ77 1

One more NEWBIE question, if I used the prompt once but I want it to ask me again, how to I go back to the market setup screen?

teraßyte Posted January 18, 2023 Posted January 18, 2023 (edited) @SJ77 While not recommended, there's a way to do it by editing directly the database. I've done it a few times for...reasons. Send me the info on what you need changed and I can take a look at it while I work on your other tasks. 😉 Edited January 18, 2023 by teraßyte SJ77 1

Make sure you are logged in from top right side. Then press on the update button. SJ77 1

If you don't have any important data with this app, and you can reconfigure it again, remove it and reinstall it again. If you have important data with this app and you cannot remove it, send a PM and I will help you link it to the Marketplace. Edited January 18, 2023 by Afrodude SeNioR- and SJ77 1 1

Thank you, I was actually able to go back and get it linked to the market place. I pulled the trigger on the upgrade and now this LOL LOL
Afrodude Posted January 18, 2023 Posted January 18, 2023 @SJ77 as I mentioned above if you don't have important data along with this app, just remove it and reinstall it.
