    I assume it like every other theme and plugin just copy the new one over the old one. and if that doesn't work.

    just erase the old folder and download the new one and install it.

    the new one works right out of the box.

  • @peregrine what other files besides custom.css should I save?

    that would be a kasper question. I didn't modify anything at all on 2.2.1 and just upgraded 2.2.2 by copying files over.

    if you modified the .tpl file I would think you would want to make any changes you made on the new tpl file aside from that kasper can clue you in... and any changers you made to the css , you made make on the new one.

    The changes made in v2.2.2 were pretty minor—you just need to update the master view as well as about.php (https://github.com/kasperisager/vanilla-bootstrap/compare/v2.2.1...v2.2.2)

  • Thanks both! @Kasper @peregrine‌
    Does this small update also take care of Basic Pages Application error where header menu links aren't showing?

    to use plugins and apps like basic pages, extrapage, membership enhanced, add menu item, etc that addlink (s) to the menu.

    you must change the views/default.master.tpl and add in {custom_menu} among the menu items and in your case basic pages will show up. (kasper told me here ....https://github.com/kasperisager/vanilla-bootstrap/issues/62
