Customized Files - Will Upgrading Overwrite All Of My Customizations?

[ATSLarry]

Hello,

 

I made several modifications to the WHMCS files to add some stuff in there for my installation. It's time to upgrade my WHMCS installation.

 

I don't want WHMCS causing all of my changes to be lost.

 

How can I avoid WHMCS from destroying my changes?

 

Also, I forgot all of the different files that I modified.

 

Is there is a trick to this?

 

 

Regards,

Larry

Hi,

It depends on how, where, you made those modifications

Hello Larry,

 

Did you customise the Six template or are you using a custom template? If it's a custom template which WHMCS template is it based on?

 

There's a lot of factors that come into play so let us know more details and we will be happy to advise.

Use a comparison program to compare the contents of the new download against the existing files. I generally keep a copy of the full site locally, then when an upgrade is needed, download the new and load them both into BeyondCompare (paid). UltraCompare (paid) is another, or even WinMerge (free).
