Vision Helpdesk V5.6.4 stable version

Today we have released Vision Helpdesk V5.6.4 Stable Version. This version mainly includes several new features for Live Chat Software & bug fixes from previous versions.

Steps for the upgrade to V5.6.4 from V5.x.x for Download License (On-Premises License) customers. 

Step 1) Log in to the billing area — https://secure.visionhelpdesk.com

Step 2) From Services >> My Services — You can download a new setup for Vision Helpdesk V5.6.4
(We support PHP7.1 and above PHP version for V5 version)

Step 3) Take a backup of your existing files and database on your server.
example: if you had installed on support folder you can rename support to support_bk and create a new support folder.

Step 4) Unzip V5.6.4 setup – it will have a folder named “upload” — you have to upload all files and folders (except setup folder) under the upload folder to your server under the support folder.
Note : If using ftp to upload make sure you use binary mode to upload files

Step 5) Copy below listed files and folders from your backup support_bk

support_bk/config.php to support/config.php
support_bk/slaveconfig.php to support/slaveconfig.php
support_bk/avatar/ to support/avatar/
support_bk/attachment/ to support/attachment/
support_bk/logs/ to support/logs/
support_bk/console/pipe.php to support/console/pipe.php

If you had any customization done in the previous version you can copy those files to new files.

Note: We recommend contacting our support team for an upgrade.

Step 6) Now we have some changes in the database — you can update it by running the below-listed file in the browser

In-browser open folder – http://yourdomain.com/support/upgrade/
This will show you a list of upgrade files from version to version
