Upgrades and Releases

Download the latest release

When a new KubikLMS version is available, sign in to the purchaser dashboard and download the latest release ZIP.

For a normal update, the process is:

Before replacing files on a live site:

Take a full database backup.
Back up the currently deployed files.
Confirm that the hosting account still meets the KubikLMS runtime requirements.
Read the release notes so you know whether the update includes any installation or migration considerations.

Upload the contents of the new release package using the same layout as the current installation:

public_html/ should still be the web root
app/, sql/, and storage/ should stay in their expected locations
preserve the live configuration and any runtime data that should not be replaced blindly

If your hosting setup keeps writable folders or config files outside the main upload path, make sure those remain intact during the update.

After the new files are in place:

Open the homepage.
Sign in as admin.
Open at least one public page and one learner-facing page.
Confirm that the main admin area still loads correctly.
If the release includes database changes, complete any required upgrade step before allowing normal use.

Do not treat a live update as complete until you know how to reverse it.

Keep these together before every update:
