G) Update Sabai Directory - top

Step 1: Update Files

All of our plugins can be updated from the Plugins page of WordPress dashboard just like other plugins distributed from wordpress.org. Make sure that you have a valid license code configured for the CodeCanyon.net Purchase Code Settings section on the Setings -> Sabai page.

Also when updating, you must always update both sabai and sabai-directory plugins (and possibly other sabai-xxx plugins if you have them installed as well) to the same version. The best way to ensure that is to use the bulk update feature of WordPress.

IMPORTANT! Updating from 1.2 to 1.3 - Unfortunately updating from version 1.2 to 1.3 is not possible using the online update. You must manually delete the sabai and sabai-directory folders from the wp-content/plugins directory using an FTP software. Also if you have been using cloned add-ons, make sure to delete all files under wp-content/sabai/System/clones. Then, upload the new plugin folders (sabai, sabai-directory, sabai-googlemaps, and sabai-paidlistings folders) to wp-content/plugins. You should NOT deactivate nor delete any sabai plugins from the Plugins page of WordPress dashboard. After uploading the folders, go to the Plugins page of WordPress dashboard. You may see an error message saying that certain add-ons are not installed or a white screen. However, do not worry and reload the page a few number of times until the page displays correctly, and then activate Sabai Directory, Sabai Google Maps, and Sabai Paid Listings plugins.

Step 2: Update Data

Next, go to Settings -> Sabai from the Wordpress administration dashboard and under the Sabai Add-ons section, upgrade all add-ons that are highlighted and have the Upgrade button displayed. Press the Upgrade button for each of these add-ons and follow the instructions displayed on the pop-up window. You can also do a bulk upgrade by checking the checkboxes on the left and pressing the Upgrade Checked button. Note that some add-ons may not be upgraded until certain add-ons have been upgraded first. Make sure to upgrade all add-ons until all add-ons are de-highlighted.

Also, depending on the upgrade package, there may be some add-ons that are newly available for installation. These add-ons will be listed on the Installable Add-ons table below the list of installed add-ons so you can click the Install button for each of them to make them active.

Step 3: Clear Cache

The last step is very simple. Go to Settings -> Sabai from the Wordpress administration dashboard and under the System Settings section, click the button labelled Clear Cache. If the cache is successfully cleared, you should see a green check button displayed next to the button that you just clicked.

That's it, you should have now successfully updated Sabai Directory to the latest version.
