cck 6.x-2.5

Release notes

Changes since CCK 6.x-2.4:

Overview:

• As usual, please make backups before upgrading.
• A few CCK core files have been added and/or removed from the package in this release. It is recommended that you delete all of the CCK core files (including subdirectories cck/help, cck/includes, and so on) and then install the new CCK core files extracted from the 2.5 package. There is no need to disable/delete modules within the CCK directory, although they should be the most recent versions.
• Please visit update.php to apply pending updates after installing the new files.
• It also worths to mention that Panels 3 integration has been reviewed and enhanced with display options for fields and field groups.
