Update disaster

I obviously did not update from backlight 2 to 3 properly.

The galleries are still in the galleries folder but it's created a brand new site. Is there any way of restoring it as the galleries are still all in place?

Very unhappy bunny here!!

Re: Update disaster

Link to your site?  What steps did you take to upgrade from BL2 to BL3?

I dragged the Backlight folder and index.php folder in to FTP which replaced those two, leaving the galleries folder intact.

Re: Update disaster

Oh dear.  That's not how it's upgraded.  All it takes is to log into your Backlight admin, visit Backlight Modules and click Upgrade Modules.
Do you have a backup of the old backlight folder or can you get one from your host?

Re: Update disaster

That's great.  We don't want you to have disasters.
