6.0.4 Released (Maintenance Release)

[Matt]

Version 6.0.4 is now available for download in the client area of our site.

This release is a collection of bugfixes collected since the last release. Also notably, 6.0.4 is the minimum version that will be required for a site to have in order to be a part of the new GeoMobile community network iPhone app. You will see the addon named something like "Mobile API"; that is the addon you will need to purchase in order to use the GeoMobile Iphone app with your site. There will be different pricing options depending on how often you want to pay the recurring cost.

Do NOT attempt to update if your Support & Updates service has expired prior to the release date! See this release note for the full details.

Refer to this post for more information on our version number schema, and specifically what we mean when we say that this is a "Maintenance Release".

Who Should Update
This update is recommended for anyone who wants the latest bugfixes, as well as anyone who wishes to use our new GeoMobile iPhone app with his site.

Code modifications: As always, if you have any PHP code modifications, to update you will need to re-apply those changes after you update, and custom code modifications are not supported in the helpdesk system. Keep this in mind when deciding whether you want to update or not.

Addon Developers: Be sure to check out the developer-oriented "changes to note" geared toward external Addon developers, see changes to note in the developer section of the wiki for that.

Template FILE modifications: I'm referring to using a custom template set with changes to system or module templates, located in the geo_templates/ directory, not changes to the main templates. For such modifications, see this page for notes on changes to those template files in the new versions. Also follow the updating tips in Customizing System or Module Templates for the smoothest update possible when there are customized system/module templates at stake.

High traffic sites For high traffic sites, it is recommended to first test the update on a test location, so that the update on the live site is as seamless as possible.
