2.3 to 2.4 upgrade - Paypal graphics not getting upgraded

Hi,

Apologies if this is covered elsewhere.

I upgraded my platform from 2.3 to 2.4.4. I did some tests previously and installed a brand new version of 2.4.4 and was pleased to see some new graphics for the inbuilt Paypal.

However, when I upgraded my 2.3 to 2.4.4 I get the old graphics.

What have I done wrong? Both platforms are showing 2.4.4 on the welcome page. Do I need to do a clean install of 2.4 to get the decent Paypal graphics? As far as I can see, everything else seems fine.

Thanks

Hi Dave, did you upgrade the template as well?

You should duplicate the new default standard template, rename it as your template, and apply your customizations.
You can place all your style customizations in a file named [yourtemplate]\style\custom.css so it will be easier to manage template upgrades.

Thanks Alberto,

That worked. The upgrade instructions suggested (to me at least) that I could keep my custom template but in fact it seems I need to use the new standard one, and then edit that again to customise (which is relatively easy to do).
