well i downloaded the upgrade for version 2.0.17-to-2.0.18

i uploaded the upgrade folder to my ftp
then ran the file, it checked what version already installed
decided i needed the upd-2.0.17-to-2.0.18 ..it then gave a message about altertables or something like that , i clicked finish and then i had this message

Checking applied upgrades:
upd-2.0.13-to-2.0.14
upd-2.0.15-to-2.0.16
upd-2.0.16-to-2.0.17
upd-2.0.17-to-2.0.18

No upgrade necessary. Please remove this folder from your server

cool!, i thought, but when i went to check my version number, its still displaying Powered by XOOPS 2.0.17.1

so has it upgraded or what? i was expecting it to say 2.0.18

what have i done wrong?

and finally does this upgrade FIX the issue where members are continually being logged out




cheers

The message is stored in database as a text field and the version number is thus hardcoded, which means no real version awareness.
You need change the footer in system=>preferences

hi, thanks for your quick reply

when i went from 2.0.17 to 2.0.17.1 i didnt have to do that, so why would i have to now?
so is my version 2.0.18 or 2.0.17.1? now?

In the footer of admin area, you will see the real version number.

"the issue where members are continually being logged out"
-- What's the problem exactly?

lets say , i or another member log into the site, then go to the forums or other targets throughout the site, by the time i get there or want to navigate the pages i need to re-log back in


sometimes it doesnt even let you do that , you enter your username/pass and it says thankyou for logging in and when it returns you to the landing page, your not logged in
