Topic : Update or Upgrade Backdrop CMS

Posted By: FTWjr on August 29, 2022, 8:22 pm

We know that you folks have the Install, clone, stage and import features for Backdrop CMS,

Since they update their script every 4 months, could you please set up an automatic update feature also.
And if not an automatic update, could you at least add a one or two step manual update feature like you have for Drupal.

Thank you.

Do you have any idea what the time frame will be, for the install of the upgrade feature for Backdrop CMS?

Hi,

The upgrade feature in Backdrop is just launched and it's available.

You need to execute cron command (Please refer following guide) if you have root access to your server. Or ask your host to do this for you. Otherwise in next 24 hours the cron will get executed on it's own and all the new packages will sync autimatically.
