<div>Hi all,</div> <div> I've been away for a bit from the list and now I'm noticing that 4.7.x is the latest version. Ok, I have some sites that use 4.6.x. I'm wanted to figure out what steps would need to be made to keep the content of a site and upgrade the install. Here are some obvious concerns.</div> <div>1) The modules are specific to a particular version, so whatever content used a module with 4.6.x will cause problems. For example, I use a flexinode content type. How can I keep content that uses the flexinodes for 4.6.x when I upgrade to 4.7.x?</div> <div>2) and other content that uses a module for 4.6.x what will happen to it when I upgrade to 4.7.x? say I had a movie review module. what would happen when I upgrade and no longer have that module available?</div> <div>3) what do I need to backup and how should it best be done to make these upgrades?</div> <div> </div>
<div>4) If I wanted to give a client all the content and the install of a site, on a CD, what steps would I take? what would I need to backup and how? The goal would be to give the client on CD everything they would need to keep the content and if needed install it elsewhere? </div> <div>4a) What steps would be taken to one, backup everything and two setup the site again from the backup contents?</div> <div> </div> <div>5) I want to do this with a writer's community site and poetry magazine online. Where might I seek persons to share admin tasks for this community, from among persons that know Drupal? Maybe a newsgroup, for writers, or one for CMS users, might exist where one could request others to join with me on such a website/CMS installation.</div> <div>Thanks so much in advance,</div> <div>Bruce</div><BR><BR>++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++<br>Bruce Whealton, publisher/co-editor/webmaster for
