Hi,
I am a user of myxwiki and I receive notifications on pages such as "June 6:
Upgraded xwiki to version 3.1 SNAPSHOT from 2011-06-06. Don't forget to
upgrade your wiki with the latest XAR (Upgrade instructions)." Does that
mean the XWiki Core has been upgraded and I just need to upgrade wiki
documents? If so, having downloaded the latest XAR
(xwiki-enterprise-wiki-3.1-20110824.095236-263.xar in this instance) to my
PC, can I expand it within myxwiki or unzip it on my machine? Do I export my
xwiki, merge my files into the new build and then import back? Since with
myxwiki the wiki is already available I don't have the experience of
building one from scratch and the confidence to just make changes knowing
they are on a local machine. Please can you provide some clearer guidelines
for users of myxwiki.
Thanks,
Jonathan

Yes

the most common way to do it is by doing the import on top of your wiki and unchecking
documents which contain configuration and should not be re-imported.
It also helps to import as new revision so if you make a mistake you can just roll back
the
document which was broken in the import.
Of course it makes sense to back up your wiki before hand using the exporter.
