Keeping your Aikeedo installation current ensures you benefit from the latest features, security patches, and performance enhancements. This guide provides a comprehensive, step-by-step process for updating Aikeedo, suitable for users of all technical levels.

​
Before You Begin

Before initiating the update process, it’s crucial to take a few preparatory steps:

  1. Check for Updates: Visit our official website to confirm the latest available version of Aikeedo.

  2. Review the Changelog: Familiarize yourself with the new features, improvements, and any potential breaking changes by reviewing our changelog.

  3. Backup Your Data: As a precautionary measure, create a complete backup of your Aikeedo data. This step is crucial to prevent any potential data loss during the update process.

Always perform updates in a staging environment first, if possible, to ensure compatibility with your specific setup.

​
Update Process

Follow these steps to update your Aikeedo installation:

  1. Download the Latest Version:

    • Obtain the latest Aikeedo package from the official source.
    • Extract the downloaded zip file on your local machine.

  2. Locate the Update File:

    • Find the aikeedo-server-files.zip file within the extracted contents.

  3. Access the Admin Panel:

    • Log in to your Aikeedo admin panel.
    • Navigate to the “Update” page in the admin dashboard.

  4. Upload the Update File:

    • Click on the “Choose File” button.
    • Select the aikeedo-server-files.zip file you located earlier.

  5. Initiate the Update:

    • Click the “Install” button to begin the update process.
    • Follow any on-screen instructions carefully.

The update process may take several minutes to complete. Do not close your browser or interrupt the process until it’s finished.

  1. Special Step for cPanel Users: If your installation environment requires the web root directory to be public_html instead of public (common in cPanel installations for the main domain), you’ll need to take an additional manual step:

    • Copy all files from the public directory to the public_html directory.
    • Make sure to include hidden files and folders (such as .htaccess file or .vite directory).
    • If necessary, enable the option to view hidden files in your file manager.

This step is crucial for ensuring all required files are in the correct location. Failing to copy hidden files may result in functionality issues.

​
Post-Update Steps

After the update process completes:

  1. Verify the Update: Confirm that the update was successful by checking the version number in your admin panel.

  2. Clear Cache: In most cases, this step is not necessary. Aikeedo automatically manages its cache during updates. However, if you notice any display issues, you may want to clear your browser cache as a troubleshooting step.

  3. Test Functionality: Thoroughly test all aspects of your Aikeedo installation, including:

    • User authentication
    • AI-powered features
    • Payment integrations (if applicable)
    • Custom configurations or integrations

  4. Review Settings: Some updates may introduce new settings or change existing ones. Review your configuration to ensure everything is set up as desired.
