Affino 6.0.2 Release

This is a minor bug-fix and enhancement release for Affino 6.0. It solves key issues with newsletter scheduling and a number of critical issues with other Affino elements. There is also a small number of minor improvements.

 

More significantly this release solves the remainder of the initial issues with Affino 6.0. We will continue to monitor any issues as they come in and may do another release in two weeks if required.

 

Upgrade Guidance

 

This is a minor release and there should be minimal impact. You will need to read through the release notes for Affino 6.0 if you’re updating from a previous release.

 

It is recommended that you run through the complete update process starting with the Affino Updater, followed by the System Update, Re-Initialise Site, Design Element Update and Skin Update.
