    3.8.2 is not in the list of Updated Versions

    Hi,

    one a Site i am administrating we're still running 3.8.2. The Patch Updates here don't show anything about that. So do I have to Update from 3.8.2 to the latest 3.8.4 PL1 as well ?

    The announcement is simple English to be honest.

    If you run 3.8.4, upload the few patch files.

    If you do not run 3.8.4, upgrade as usual.

    You are on 3.8.2,
    usually that means that is not 3.8.4, so you need to upgrade to 3.8.4 PL1.

    That means: get the 3.8.4 PL1 .zip file, unpack it, prepare it for upload, upload it. run upgrade.php from browser, until it is done and you're back in the admincp.

    Oh, I recommend to make a backup first before doing anything. Database & Files.

      Ok, I downloaded the Full 3.8.4 Patch Release 1 and updated the Files. Now that i started the upgrade Script and entered the Customer Number it says:

      This script will update your vBulletin installation to version 3.8.3
      Press the 'Next Step' button to proceed.

      Shouldn't it say that its updating to 3.8.4 or something ? Since the Forum is still running 3.8.2


      Thank you.

        3.8.3 is the first step
        3.8.4 is the next step


        vB5 is unequivocally the best forum software, but not yet...

              Actually, I was a bit confused as well. From the replies by Freddie at the announcement thread, I thought older 3.8 users could download just the patch as well if they wanted.

                He wrote it out fine. Pretty clear English to me, and English is my second language.
