Knowledge Article 9906:
Updating your previously-made projects to the latest Build

Applicability: SellFolio 4.0 Complete only

_________________________________________________

Explanation

NOTE: SellFolio 3.0 projects from any edition CANNOT be imported into SellFolio 4.0 editions.  See this page for upgrade details.  You CAN import SellFolio 4.0 Basic and SellFolio 4.0 Client Projects projects into SellFolio 4.0 Complete.

This document describes how to update your previously-made 4.0-based projects to the latest SellFolio 4.0 Build.  You don't have to follow these instructions for new 4.0-based projects that you make using the latest build—you only have to do this for previously-made 4.0-based projects.  TO PROCEED, YOU MUST FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS VERY PRECISELY.  SOME STEPS WILL APPLY—OTHERS WILL NOT.

 

Solution

1) Uninstall your existing SellFolio edition.

2) Obtain the latest build.  Do so by emailing support@sellfolio.com with the email address that your originally ordered with, or your order number.  After we verify your original order, you will receive a download link, and you must install that build.  Please allow up to 24 hours for our response.  The link you receive will be valid for 24 hours only.

3) Update the mm.swf file for each of your previously-made projects.  To do this, go into the Files folder in your SellFolio installation, as shown below, and copy the mm.swf file in that folder (DO NOT move that file out of the folder, however):

C:
     \Program Files
          \SellFolio V4 EditionName
               \Files  
<--go into this folder and copy the mm.swf file.  DO NOT move it out.

Now, go into the Bin folder for each of your projects, as shown below, and paste-in the mm.swf file.  NOTE: Do this for each of your projects:

C:
     \SellFolios_V4
          \YourProjectName
               \Bin  
<--go into this folder and paste-in the mm.swf file to overwrite the existing mm.swf file.

4) To modify any projects made using any 4.0 edition on or prior to May 11, 2007 (before Build 39 was issued), you will need to complete this step.  Click the following link for instructions: click here.

5) To modify any projects made using any 4.0 edition on or prior to June 6, 2007 (before Build 40 was issued), you will need to complete this step.  Click the following link for instructions: click here.

6) SellFolio 4.0 Complete users only: To modify any projects made on or prior to August 23, 2007, go to Step 2-F, click "Edit Advanced Project Settings, and then click "OK" to update your sellfolio.html file.

7) Do a Test-Drive of your project to verify that it works.
