To upgrade to 2.16.0 From 2.15 please follow these steps:

Step 1: Download the files and extract them on your local computer.
 

Step 2: Set your marketplace in maintenance mode, so that visitors don’t get any errors or see sensitive system information.
 

Step 3:  Take a backup of your database and the project files(current running script). So that you can get back to the old version if having issues with the new one.
 

Step 4: Replace only these directories and files [Dont touch other files/directories] with the newly downloaded one:

Directories:

  1. app
  2. bootstrap
  3. config
  4. database
  5. public (css, images folder and the default theme has changes that need to be updated)
  6. resources
  7. routes
  8. vendor

Files:

  1. composer.json
  2. composer.lock
  3. package.json

 

Step 5: Check the permissions as described in the installation guide.
 

Step 6: Upgrade Plugins (Skip this step if you don’t have any plugins).

Please check the change logs to see if any of your installed plugins have a new version available. If updates are available, make sure to update your plugins to the latest version for the best performance and features.
