Within the next 24 Hours.

so how can i manual update it my self can you tell me by basic steps please? thanks

Hi
If you really wants to do a manual update, read this :
http://docs.oxwall.org/install:update#manual-update

I still don't have an update button.  Is there a reason why it takes to long to show up in the admin area?

The auto update is now available in your admin panel

It still does not show.

Down the menu, no ?
Take a screenshot of your main page admin panel please

Here is the screenshot:

Ok.
Cron script checks oxwall.org for new updates once every 24 hours. So, please, be patient :)

Is there any way for me to change how often it checks?

No. Wait a few hours it will be available ;)

Thanks so much. :)

Wow, I can't believe it is still not ready.  I hope it is soon.

Actually it _is_ ready, only your site hasn't checked for updates yet. Well, this seems strange though, as the update was available more than 24 hours ago... Are your cron jobs working?

I thought it was strange too.  I had set up the cron and someone else told me it was set up right.  I am not sure if it is.  I know I have not been able to send out mass mailings or to invite new friends.  They never get them.  I was told it was ok when I was having issues with my chat.  This is what I have:

/usr/local/bin/php /home/sitename/public_html/oxwall/ow_cron/run.php

It is set to check every minute.  Does this look correct to you and are there any other jobs I need to set up?

I figured it out.  it should be:

/usr/bin/php /home/sitename/public_html/oxwall/ow_cron/run.php

So you got both issues cleared up, cron and subsequently update?
