Upgrading

Make sure to follow the general upgrade guide AND the version specific upgrade guide - there may be some breaking changes for you in this release.

Important if you are upgrading an existing site: for the best results:

1. In web.config do NOT change useLegacyEncoding to false if it is currently set to true - changing the password encoding will cause you not being able to log in any more
2. In umbracoSettings.config leave EnablePropertyValueConverters set to false - this will help your existing content queries to still work
3. In tinyMceConfig.config make sure to remove <plugin loadOnFrontend="true">umbracolink</plugin> so that the rich text editor works as it should
