Previous owners of Ultimate Locator can upgrade to the latest v3.2 for free if you purchased your Ultimate Locator software within the last 6 months.

If it has been longer than 6 months since your initial purchase, you'll need to renew your Upgrades and Support plan from within your member's account to have access to the downloads area.

How to upgrade from v3.1 to v3.2:

1. Download v3.2 files from your Member's Account.
2. You can download the ionCube version or the Source Guardian version, depending on your needs and PHP version.
3. Before uploading any files to your server, you should login to your v3.1 Admin Panel and perform an export of your locations and also perform a system backup.
4. Transfer all v3.2 files to your server. Follow the Upgrade Instructions in the User Manual for precise steps.
5. It is also important for you to NOT upload the /admin/mysql.php file while transferring files over.  Also do not transfer over the /include/googlemapsapi.php file.
   
6. Run the upgrade3.2.php script file that is inside your /locator/admin directory. This will update your MySQL Database.
7. Login to your admin panel to administer your system. Always view the General Settings and edit as needed. Plus explore all new settings and features.

Following the above steps should upgrade your v3.1 to v3.2 without any errors, if all steps are followed.

* Template customization loss can occur if you upload new default templates and overwrite your existing customized templates. However, to take advantage of the new v3.2 features, you will want to upload all default v3.2 template files.
