from CF v5.0.0 to v5.0.9 ... do I have to be afraid ?

Hello,

I'm about to upgrade from v 5.0.0 to v 5.0.9 and, since it is the very first time I do it, I am a little (a lot !) afraid.
I am still under Joomla 3.3.6 (but I will also soon upgrade to newer version).

I was looking for the way to get Google new reCaptcha on my forms, and watching your video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EnWb3pWOA9s I realized I don't have all the options that I could see on the video.
And precisely not what you call the Google noCaptcha.

My question : when I try to search for updates in Joomla for Chronoforms, I dont find nothing.
So I guess I will have to install the new chronoforms over the old one (or even maybe unistall first ???)
But... what will happen to my forms ?

I don't have any databases to handle, but I have several forms and do not know how to get them back after the upgrade.

Is there any precaution to take?

Thank you.

Hi flodariege,

For safety, backup your forms using the Backup icon in the Forms Manager toolbar; and maybe take a database backup too. You should not need either but better safe than sorry.

Then download and install the current release of CFv5 over the existing one.

I've backed up my forms, and will update this weekend.
