Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.A new version of Drupal is out, with some security updates that may be pertinent to get in.
What is the methodology recommended;
- update Drupal core or
- use devices database inc patch?
When will you release a new distribution with the updated Drupal?
Thanks

Should be a 1-click update if you're on Pantheon. Otherwise update Drupal core as documented here: https://www.drupal.org/node/1494290

gnorf CreditAttribution: gnorf commentedDon't have Drush but plan to look into it.
I tried to update Drupal core only and with the result that the whole content area/function and and content files vanished. WSOD when clicking content in admin menu after update.
I suppose I have to update the entire package?

gnorf CreditAttribution: gnorf commentedNever mind, worked it out, had made many modifications to diverse files but in the end the easiest was to:
- unpack the entire beta 10 package
- upload it to a new subdir
- create a new empty sql
- import sql from the original
- swap out modified files
- run update.php &
Hey presto all working as it should.
Since only one site will be online anyways I could use salt from the original installation. Under other circumstances I would have installed the package first, then done all the swapping & db cloning while keeping needed generated info from the settings.php post install.
