Restoring backup package from Newscoop version 4.2.3/4.2.4 on 4.3
For a backup/restore use the "Backup/Restore utility" which can be found in the Newscoop Admin Panel.
If your current 4.2.3/4.2.4 instance contained old legacy plugins (debate, poll, soundcloud,recaptcha) and you created a backup, you will have to update these plugins after the restore process in version 4.3 of Newscoop.
This is required because more adjustments have been done to make the legacy plugins compatible with Newscoop 4.3.
How to install old legacy plugins?:
- Download the fixed package of legacy plugins from here.
- Extract archive and copy it to
newscoop/plugins/directory. - Go to newscoop root folder (
../newscoop/) and executephp composer.phar dump-autoload —-optimize - Clear the cache folder:
sudo rm -rf cache/*
