====Upgrading phpList====
Upgrading phpList in a few steps:
~1)BACKUP your old ##config.php## file, or optionally backup your whole phpList so you can rollback if something would go wrong.
~1)Replace your old phpList with the new version.
~1)Go to ##""http://yourdomain/lists/admin/""## and choose the ##Upgrade## link in the //System Functions// section.
~~~- ##lists/.htaccess##, if you have customized it and want to keep it for reference.
~If you want to be on the safe side, we recommend you download the contents of the phpList directory from your web server to your hard disk. Should things go wrong, you can simply restore these files to the server.
~1)Now you can delete your old phpList installation and replace it with the new version
~~-Download the latest phpList release marked as stable from the [[http://www.phplist.com/download phpList website]]
~~-Delete all from your online phpList folder (make sure you stored your ##config.php## file, and your customized ##english.inc## or language.inc files).
~~-Upload the contents of the phpList directory (i.e. the **"lists"** directory) to your online phpList folder.
~1)Then adapt your ##config.php## file. You could overwrite the config file with the config file you stored earlier, but it is strongly recommended to use the new config.php file and re-adapt it to your situation by using the settings specified in your old config file, because new features may have have been added.
~1)Finally point your browser to your phpList admin directory and login. You'll be notified that your database is out of date (i.e.: //"Your database is out of date, please make sure to upgrade"//). Just click on the ##upgrade## link in the //System Functions// block.
Your phpList is now upgraded.
**Tip**: If you are in doubt whether new phpList features are compatible with your specific server setup, it is recommended to create a separate test installation of phplist and run some tests, prior to actually upgrading your production install.
