Unfortunately, at the time of introducing Clooud 1.4.0 we have not included an auto-updater yet, as we are working on it as I am typing this. Because we did not want to hold back this great update, we updated it to Envato and on GitHub already!

Here are the instructions on how to update properly from v1.2.1 to v1.4.0.

1. Download 1.4.0 and upload and replace all the files with the 1.2.1 files

2. When you visit your website now, you will notice an error saying that the $downloadable does not exist.

3. Open your database manager like phpmyadmin and navigate to the settings table. Find the row with the name of "media" and edit the attributes field. The attributes field should look like:

{"auto_approve":0,"remote_uploads":0,"clone_uploads":0,"guest_uploads":1,"media_per_page":12,"uploads_per_day":999,"delete_after_x_days":30,"uploads_per_day_per_guest":20,"max_file_upload_size_user":5000,"max_file_upload_size_guest":300,"max_amount_of_concurrent_uploads_user":10,"max_amount_of_concurrent_uploads_guest":4}

and it needs to look like:

{"downloadable":1,"infinite_scrolling":0,"auto_approve":0,"remote_uploads":0,"clone_uploads":0,"guest_uploads":1,"media_per_page":12,"uploads_per_day":999,"delete_after_x_days":30,"uploads_per_day_per_guest":20,"max_file_upload_size_user":5000,"max_file_upload_size_guest":300,"max_amount_of_concurrent_uploads_user":10,"max_amount_of_concurrent_uploads_guest":4}

You can obviously keep your settings, just make sure to add"downloadable":1,"infinite_scrolling":0 and you are set. Please notice, that right now the issue might not seem to be solved, because the old settings are still cached. Either wait until the cache expires automatically (~15 minutes unless you changed the settings) or delete all the files inside the storage/framework/cache folder.
