HelpDesk 3 - Version 3.5

HelpDesk 3 - Version 3.5 is finally available!

It has been a very long process and it was harder then we thought. There has been so many requests and ideas for this major release, we could not resist to build everything into our HelpDesk.

The first release of HelpDesk launched more than 7 Years ago, a lot has been changed since then. We are now at Version 3.5 and it was again a great pleasure to build something from the future.

New Backend Chat

We went through each file, folder, image and function and added, improved and changed almost everything. We had to change the release date about 5 times, but we think it was worth the wait.

Update

First think about a backup!!! When you have a backup of your Database and Files you can proceed with the update. :)

This is a major release, therefore you will need to update manually. Don't worry you can keep all your data, but you might loose your custom modifications.

Please follow the update guide very carefully, you will also be asked to enter your license key after the update when logging into the Operator Panel, keep it ready!

  1. Backup your database
  2. Backup your files

  4. Open your FTP Program (do not use cPanel or any other panel for uploading the files)
  5. Browse to the directory you have installed HelpDesk 3
  6. Go inside the 3.5_complete folder on your computer and select everything except (cache and files)
  7. Overwrite the folders and files on your server with the content of the 3.5_complete folder
  8. Wait until everything has been uploaded correctly
