Upgrading (Laravel Forum 7.x)

Upgrading

There are no breaking changes from 6 to 7, so you can upgrade simply upgrade by updating the package with composer:

composer require riari/laravel-forum:^7.0

There are new migrations to support new features added in 7, so you should also migrate your database (even if you don’t intend to use the new features):

php artisan migrate

You can optionally publish the config files via php artisan vendor:publish to get up-to-date config. However, be aware that this will overwrite your existing config files - you may prefer to review the latest config files and pull in new values manually.
