Backing up and Installing new Versions

Kirby

Kirby is a Flat-file CMS and does not require a database, which makes it very easy to install and backup. Just copy the folder you installed Kirby and aag-rooms to into your backup location to back it up.

To upgrade Kirby, simply download the newest version of the plainkit, Delete the "kirby" and "media" folders from your install folder, and copy the new versions from the plainkit into the folder. Always refer to the offical Kirby documentation for upgrade instructions as these are subject to change between releases.

aag-rooms is built on Kirby 5. Staying within the same generation of releases should be fine, but wait for offical word before upgrading to possible future KirbyCMS generations such as Kirby 6

Kirby 5

Kirby 5 is now fully supported, Kirby 4 has only been tested up to v4.8.0
