Migration from YetiForce 6.1 to YetiForce 6.2
=============================================

| Migration from YF6.1 to YF6.2 requires non-standard actions.
| *Unfortunately the migration package from YF6.1 to YF6.2 deletes all subfolders in* :file:`/vendor` *, so also the
  folder* :file:`/vendor/pad` *needed for the PAD PDF Generators plugin.*
| Refer to the PAD Extensions Manager manual for the actions required for a successful migration;
  paragraph “Migration from YetiForce 6.1 to YetiForce 6.2”.
| Two cases are discussed below: *if you have yet to migrate to YetiForce 6.2 or if you have already
  migrated to YetiForce 6.2*.

========================================
I still have to migrate to YetiForce 6.2
========================================

#. make a backup of YetiForce: code folder (PHP) and database
#. make a copy of the :file:`/vendor/pad` folder and save it on your desktop
#. proceed to migrate to YetiForce 6.2
#. reload the `/vendor/pad` folder from your desktop
#. download PAD PDF Generators 1.0.5+ (from your private area on www.penguinable.com) and install it

========================================
I have already migrated to YetiForce 6.2
========================================

If you have already migrated to YF 6.2, the :file:`/vendor/pad` folder has been removed. In this case:

#. make a backup of YetiForce: code folder (PHP) and database
#. download PAD PDF Generators 1.0.5+ (from your private area on www.penguinable.com) and install it
#. open a terminal
#. go to the :file:`/vendor/pad` folder
#. run the command :command:`composer install`
