: Questions regarding Vertex Menu patch
: braff54 October 23, 2017, 08:48:19 AM
Hi,
I am about to update our club's Joomla 3.7.5 to the latest version, 3.8.1. (Traction template)
Some questions:
1 - Did the 3.8.1 update fix the disappearing menu problem so I don't have to do the patch?
2 - If not, should I install the patch BEFORE the update or after?
3 - Your instructions recommend using Filezilla, which I usually use (v3.27.1, Mac OS 10.11.6), however I noticed some threads on this board where people had trouble using FZ on Macs, some of their template files missing or changed because they were overwritten. Has this been resolved?
4 - Should I use another FTP client like CyberDuck which I believe has a Merge function and if so, which do you recommend?

Sorry for the questions, but I'm a relative newbie working on an site I "inherited", and still feeling my way through it.  :)

Thank you,
Burns

Hello,

1. Yes it fixes the menu issue.
2. It doesn't matter when you do it, it won't affect anything either way as its just a file that gets changed in the patch.
3. We've tested on a Mac with FileZilla and don't have any issues. We aren't sure what is happening for some folks but it works the same as on PC.
4. We recommend FileZilla

Thanks,
