Upgrade flarum

Wlork

This is my first update since installing Flarum. I read the instructions and I'm not sure I understand step 2.

I have to take the composer.json file and put * to all the extensions I have installed (except for flarum/core)? For example, flarum-lang/french is on ⁴.10.... I have to replace this number by * ?

If you want to upgrade your Flarum, Just run these commands:

composer update --prefer-dist --no-plugins --no-dev -a --with-all-dependencies
php flarum migrate
php flarum cache:clear

More information: https://docs.flarum.org/update/
And if you want to update your extension, just run your extension's package name like this:

composer update xxx/xxxxxxx-xxxxx

masihdindar Thank ! I understand, but step 2 is necessary or not? If yes, what should I do? 🙂

Wlork Step 2 is for updating extensions, so if you have an outdated extension you have to do it.
But i have suggestion for you. Juts install Extiverse on your Flarum. This service will check your core and extension's version so you can easily find whatever need to update.
For installing Extiverse and add panel to you admin, just run this:

composer require extiverse/mercury:*

Then you have to signup here and get your API: https://extiverse.com/

Other way to check outdated extensions is running this command:

composer show --outdated

And now you can upgrade you extensions 🙂

Thank you very much 🙂

All my extensions are up to date, so I'll just run commands 🙂
