Extract the archive and run the update script:

unzip stilmerce-vX.Y.Z.zip
cd stilmerce-vX.Y.Z
bash update-stilmerce.sh

The update script:

1. Backs up the current release
2. Copies the new app files
3. Runs any new database migrations
4. Rebuilds the apps
5. Restarts the PM2 processes
6. Runs a health check

Your configuration files (.env, nginx config, uploads) are not overwritten.

sudo pm2 ls
curl -s https://api.yourdomain.com/health

Updating PluginsCopy Anchor Link

Go to Admin → Plugins. Plugins with available updates show an Update badge. Click it to update the plugin from the Stilgen store.

Or update all plugins at once:

Admin → Plugins → Update All

RollbackCopy Anchor Link

If something goes wrong after an update, the update script saves the previous release to /var/www/stilmerce-backup/. To restore:

bash /var/www/stilmerce-backup/restore.sh

This restores the previous app files and restarts services. It does not roll back database migrations.
