Upgrade

  1. Back up the database. The add-on owns four tables containing every chain and override on the board; rolling back a schema change requires the backup.
  2. Replace the contents of src/addons/MC/ThreadSplit/ with the new release.
  3. Navigate to AdminCP > Add-ons and click Upgrade next to [MC] Thread Split.
  4. Run the upgrade steps when prompted.

What may change between versions​

  • New columns on the chain and override tables.
  • New options. Existing options keep their values; new ones land at their default.
  • New permissions. New permissions default to the safe value (deny) until you grant them.

Patch releases are bug fixes only and are safe to apply without a backup, though one is still recommended. Minor releases may add options or per-thread fields. Major releases may rename or remove behaviour; migration notes ship with the release.
