@oranges13 oranges13 released this 05 Nov 21:01

Upgrades the base version to Laravel 5.1, which supports PHP 7+ and will support most modern hosting platforms that are phasing out older versions of PHP.

This will be the last major release before the overhaul to modern Laravel (5.8+)

This release fixes #101, #105, and probably fixes most of the issues that prompted the writing of #92

Upgrading to v1.3

  1. Download a backup of your current installation.
    • Make note especially of your .htaccess file and any customizations made to it
  2. Delete the application/vendor folder in your existing installation.
  3. Extract the upgrade file, overwriting any files that already exist. This will create a new vendor folder with all the updated dependencies.
  4. Double check the .htaccess file and restore any customization you made to the RewriteBase directive and any other changes.

If you have questions or concerns with this release, please submit an issue. And look forward to the upcoming version 2.0 with new features, and performance improvements!

If the upgrade fails and you want to revert to your backup

  1. Delete the application/vendor folder in the upgraded site folder.
  2. Extract your original backup files into your installation directory, overwriting any files that exist. This will restore the original application/vendor folder and the old dependency versions.
  3. Restore your original .htaccess file
