!Upgrading from beta versions to Imagevue X2 20081224
Posted: 25 Dec 2008, 03:57
With the release of Imagevue X2, we made changes to the location where user theme files are stored. This is a benefit for future implementations, but may require you to move and rename a few files.
If you did NOT make any changes to the THEMES, OR you are NOT upgrading from an earlier beta version, then you may disregard the instructions below.
1. Log in to FTP, and navigate to the folder imagevue/config/
In this folder, you may have up to several USER THEME files. These are the files where your changes to the themes have been stored.
2. locate your user theme files
For example, if you edited the theme "gardener", you will have a file called "gardenerUser.xml". If you edited the "default" theme, you will have a fille "defaultUser.xml".
3. Move files to folder
You need to create folders for each theme file. For example, if you have a file "gardenerUser.xml", you need to create a folder "gardener". After creating the folder, move your file "gardenerUser.xml" into the new new folder. You need to set "write" permissions for this folder also!
PS! If you have a file configUser.xml, then keep this in your config folder!
4. Rename file
Finally, rename the XML file in the folder to "themeConfig.xml"(no matter what it was called before).
Old USER theme files were stored like this:
With new system, they must be moved and renamed like this:

Sorry for the inconvenience, but this change had to be made! All future changes you do to themes will be handled like this automatically from the admin of course!
