Default Update - patch from 5.6 to 6.x

Hello,
on the BoonEx Blog was mentioned, that the patch for the dolphin-update from 5.6 to 6.x should come on the first week of september. Have i missed this patch, or is there no patch for the update?

I have more then 10000 members, and i do not want to update my site until i can transfer the database to the new version.

Is there a patch or not ?

Best regards Sanne

1. Backup all your mysql databases

2. Make a new install of Dolphin 6.02

3. Go to phpmyadmin

4. Seletec the Table: Profiles and go to the tab STRUCTURE (on the new 6.02 database and old 5.6 or 5.x database)

5. Now seletected and deleted all fields that were in 5.6 and that arent in 6.02

6. Exported the table profiles from 5.x and imported in the 6.02

7. Now the only problem are the passwords, the new dolphin 6.x uses md5 encryption to protect the passwords and you will have to encrypt all the previous user passwords to do this...

8. On the new 6.02 database phpmyadmin go to SQL tab and insert the text:

UPDATE `Profiles` SET password = MD5("password")

9. That should md5 encrypt all the passwords.

10. Now you should have all users added to 6.02 database and available to log in.

11. In the previous installation of 5.6x or 5.x in your ftp program go to:

/media/images/profile/

copy that folder (profile) that contains all the users pictures..

12. Now log in your 6.02 ftp account and overwrite the:

/media/images/profile/

folder with the 5.x /media/images/profile/ folder.. that should add the 5.x photos to 6.02

Im sorry if this is confusing.. it worked for me.. im not very good at explaining or writing english

Thanks for the update, much appreciated, but do your site images work ok without having the icons?

I will have to give this a go and see how it works, I think I can follow your instructions, thanks again.

hey glad i helped... how its said in step 8

8. On the new 6.02 database phpmyadmin go to SQL tab and insert the text:

UPDATE `Profiles` SET password = MD5("password")


you have to insert the bold part in SQL tab of phpmyadmin 6.02 database

This is perhaps a better option for a site with pre-existing members, messages, and other data.
