Downgrade to 4.6.2

I’ve upgraded to 4.7 on a few sites and it’s broken a few plugins and my clients are missing the textile help box. Before I do it is it possible to downgrade to 4.6.2?

Re: Downgrade to 4.6.2

The database structure hasn’t changed a huge amount form 4.6.2 to 4.7.0 but there’s no automatic routine aside from returning to a saved past database from your 4.6.2 era. If you’ve not got a recent backup, you could do it manually by reversing the steps detailed in the update routine here

But, that’s not really the idea ;-) So, more to the point, what are the plugins that no longer work? Maybe there are replacements or workarounds already available… It would make more sense to invest effort here.

My clients are missing the textile help box

The textile help is now available in another form, but the way it was could almost certainly be resurrected using a plugin or custom admin theme.

Or you simply give them a handy cheat-sheet!
