Advise on template update

I am using PostNote ver. 2.0.0 for a project that has been resting a while but is now being re-activated. I ahve noticed that there have been several template updates for PostNote since I put the project on hold. I am therefore thinking about updating to the latest version, but would need you to clarify the following before I dare to go ahead:

1. Is it enough to use the latest update or must I install all updates published after my version?
2. I have made several changes to the CSS-files. Can I still install the upadate(-s). and then re-install my backed-up css files?
3. Anything else I should consider?

Your advise is most appreciated.

Anyone?

Hello,

I'm in the same case... especially concerning 2. and 3.

Thanks for the advice

01 - you can just update to latest. all files will be updated there. remember all css / core changes will be lost...

02 - 03 - i wouldn't override the css, since there might be several changes... insted i would suggest enable override.css and copy in all your changes. this way all further updates will be easy to maintain.. it's only a big job the first time, but will spare you some time in the long end...

Thank you very much for your advise. One more thing, if I may: Can template updates be installed using Joomla admin's install tool?

unfortunetly not ... but just overwrite files (after backup ofcause...)

Many thanks
