:::::::::: Upgrades from a minor version (like 1.20.0) to a different, newer ''minor'' version (like 1.20.5) are '''not''' problematic and generally speaking require very little thinking &mdash; just do it and it'll go fine. :-) The same is not true for major version changes (like upgrading from 1.20 to 1.21 or so), as then there'd be schema changes and other issues to sort out, at least usually.<br />@Mark: I spoke with [[User:Emufarmers|Emufarmers]] about QuestyCaptcha and improvements for it a few weeks ago. We both agreed that having a special page for adding/modifying/deleting CAPTCHA questions would be essential to have to improve the usability of the extension. He mentioned having written some code for an administration special page, but I don't know what's the current state of that project; what works, what doesn't, what hasn't been implemented, etc. but I can try to ask him for an update. --[[User:Jack Phoenix|Jack Phoenix]] ([[User talk:Jack Phoenix|talk]]) 08:53, 2 May 2013 (PDT)

::::::::::: Thanks for checking into that Jack - it seems like that would be pretty helpful for lots of wiki communities!  Best, [[MarkDilley]]

::::::::::::If we could somehow run http://wikiindex.org/maintenance/DumpBackup.php (See [[mw:Manual:DumpBackup.php]]), it would be very easy to get a database dump.

:Why not stick to the 1.19.x branch? This is a long term support until May 2015. Then WikiIndex could be upgraded to the next LTS 1.23.x --[[User:Kghbln|&#91;&#91;kgh&#93;&#93;]] ([[User talk:Kghbln|talk]]) 14:19, 3 May 2013 (PDT)
