... and to migrate the site: /portal_migration/manage_migrate/ One I did that, the site was fully upgraded to 2.5.5. However, I still have the same problems as before: - Can't create new Folders, or edit Folder descriptions. - Raw variable strings appear in portal messages that confirm the creation of new objects. :confused: I didn't see a mention of those issues in the release notes, but I hoped from Steve's reply that the upgrade would address them.
