The latest joomla auto update (to 1.5.14) replaced all fo my files (and changed the owner and perms). So all of my css files, favicon, etc were reset to their original states. Luckily, I had it all backed up but I'd like to make sure it doesn't happen next time. Does this happen with every update? How can I change it? Thanks!
edit:
Ok, well, sorry, I figured out part of it at least. I guess that default templates get updated so all one has to do it rename (or copy, rename, paste) the template folder and pick the new one.
Forum:
First report of such behaviour
With this information we will attempt to replicate the issue, and if possible, make sure it doesn't happen again.
I was using the rhuk_milkyway
I was using the rhuk_milkyway template. I was using the white color and background variations. Both were reset to blue. template.css was reset because i had changed the logo from the default (in code, not by renaming a new file and replacing the old one). favicon.ico was overwritten back to the original. The last modified date was 12:09 AM and the owner and group were reset to www-data. I didn't really fix the problem but it can be prevented by renaming the template directory (at least I think so). I picked that idea up from here. If there's anything else I can do, let me know. I love the product!
Thanks for the link
Hopefully the joomla installation will be more "modular" and support local changes/configurations in a more structured way in the future, but one can only hope...
