Hi,
this is reallly urgent and i hope to get some help here. I have a PHP NUKE Platinum 7.6 website. It comes with PHPNUKE 7.6 with lots of add ons. I want to change only the PHPNUKE part of the website to 7.8 and keep all the addons intact.
Can i do it directly by following the normal upgrade used to upgrade PHP NUKE 7.6 to PHP NUKE 7.8. Is upgrading like is reliable??
Please help.

People always say just add the new files to your site and wham your done. Well for most of us non-programing types it's usually an event rather than a simple process. If your site is heavily modified, that means if you have been in your site changing config files, pages, modules, blocks adding gt etc. Then all your changes will be history. I found this out the hardway after moving from 7.4 to 7.8. For me personally, there is no way it was worth the effort. If your site is working great as is - then don't change it. If the site is heavily modified, be prepared to put in some effort to change files manually. Remember there are still people using ver. 6.5 Look for example at nukecops they use version 6.7. What does that tell you?
If your going to do it, make damn sure you have a data base backup.
Just make sure to do your own dd b4 you proceed.
