    1261263.4 Upgrading 
    127127 
    128 If you are upgrading from 0.301, you don't need to perform any 
    129 SQL upgrade steps. 
    130  
    131 Otherwise, perform the above steps but with the upgrade.sql file  
     128Perform the above steps but with the upgrade.sql file  
    132129found in /distribution/database. 
     130 
     131Run http://your-elgg-location/upgrade.php once to publish RSS feeds 
     132for all users. Then delete it from the server. 
    133133 
    134134NB: The navigation system has changed severely since the previous 
    …… 
    136136If you would like to keep your existing templates, you should back 
    137137up the 'templates' and 'template_elements' tables in your database. 
    138 You can then change templates over using the instructions in 
    139 /THEMECHANGE. 
     138Note that these will need significant alteration for this version of 
     139Elgg, for which only alteration of the CSS and page shell portions of 
     140the template is recommended.

    168 4.3 XML-RPC 
     1694.3 Optional plugins 
    169170 
    170171Misja Hoebe has written an XML-RPC unit that requires the PEAR library. 
    …… 
    172173all the prerequisites for this unit, uncomment the include XMLRPC line 
    173174in the plugins section of includes.php. 
     175 
     176We have also included an implementation of the TinyMCE editor. This 
     177is enabled by default. To disable it, comment out the TinyMCE line in 
     178the plugins section of includes.php. 
     179 
     180Another plugin is the experimental shared calendar, which allows 
     181users of your Elgg system to share events with each other, which can 
     182be found in the usual ways (restricted by groups and searchable by 
     183tag). To enable this, uncomment the calendar line in the plugins 
     184section of includes.php. 
     185 
     186If you are using the calendar, you will need to add the related 
     187database tables.  Using your command line terminal, navigate to  
     188/distribution/database in the distribution package. Type the 
     189following: 
     190 
     191        mysql -u [username] -p [password] [databasename] < elgg_calendar.sql

    …… 
    193211Because Elgg is free and open source, we often don't hear about new 
    194212installations. You don't have to, but we'd love it if you'd tell us 
    195 what you're doing with it. You can reach us at system@elgg.net. 
     213what you're doing with it. You can reach us at system@elgg.net or add 
     214a link to your site directly to our information resource at 
     215http://elgg.org/info/.
