[SOLVED] What's the process for upgrading from 3.4.9 to 3.7.1
 
Hi,
I am rebuilding a copy of my site on WP 3.2.1 with Atahualpa 3.7.1.

What is the process for importing the settings from 3.4.9 to 3.7.1 ? I have tried pasting the export file in the import box, but I receive an error saying that it does not appear to be a valid file.

Thanks in advance.

Patrick

Could you attach a copy of your export to a reply (use the paper clip icon)?

If it is the same site - i.e. you are upgrading Site A from 3.4.9 to 3.7.1 - you don't have to export/import the settings, they are stored in the DB and will be used in 3.7.1

If you want to go from 3.4.9 on Site A to 3.7.1 on Site B - an easy thing to do is a manual install of 3.7.1 on Site A and temporally swap to 3.7.1, do the export, swap Site A back to 3.4.9 and then import the settings into Site B

Thanks guys, it was a new install and the issue was with Google Chrome, once I switched to Firefox, it worked no problem.

Thanks again.
