Question Using the latest version on a live website

I wonder how many people have now taken the bull by the horns and are using the latest software on their live website? I would love to take the plunge but I'm still a little wary.

Of course you should be wary and users should be particularly careful if they have not first experimented with K 1.6 in a test environment. The only thing that I can say to you, and others reading this topic, is to read Kunena 1.6 - I did it my way!

I'm using the latest version on my live site. I use a test environment to tryout updates/upgrades before installing them on my live site.

Best advise i can give you: Backup your livesite, copy to a test environment, test the new install/upgrade, backup live site again...roll out the changes.

You get the point, better save than sorry....Backup!

I used the beta1 and now the rc on a live site with 5000 users

i had problem with the beta version and the [img size] strings in posts, got it sorted after removing the size strings from the post, and i have no idea what caused the problem. Other than that, everything's fine and i (and the users) love the new version.

if you know how to sort out small issues (change some code, style, follow instructions..) go for it, but as John said, BACKUP first

The problem is, I'm having such a hard time with the forum menu, I'm not going to upgrade until I can get that sorted out. Very very frustrating

What's with the menu?
