Hi, just wanted to ask how people go about upgrading their DNN sites. I currently upload the upgrade file to a new folder on a site then via SmartFTP i drag & drop the folders and files to the root and it will overwrite most of the files but the problem with the FTP clients is that they won't overwrite folders very well due to the way FTP works - if there are nested folders it will come back with an error something like "cannot rename directory".

Does anyone use an FTP client which is smart enough to allow for this as it adds time having to go through the upgrade one folder at a time.

Thanks

Filezilla works just fine for me.
