Hi, I've upgraded from V5 using the recommended path all was well until V7 to V7.3.1. I've fixed the problem by replacing the web.config with a new one. The problem now is the skin broken due to JQuery changes and I cant do anything to upload a new skin through the GUI. Is there instructions on how to do this via FTP and database changes?

Skins are just files inside /Portals/_default/Skin/[skinPackName] or /Portals/[PortalID]/Skin//[skinPackName] folder
