    Getting the following error when trying to upgrade to 4.7 from 4.6.3
    "CSRF protection error - form must be submitted within 60 minutes after displaying, please repeat"
    Cleared cookies & cache, still no joy.

    I believe this is caused when you enter the wrong username and password for the AMEMBER site during the upgrade. If you entered your admin username & password, that is wrong. You need to enter the username and password you use to access your aMember support account.

    There is a way to reset it, by going to http://www.yourdomain.com/amember/admin-upgrade/get-token
    It allowed me to seemingly upgrade, but did not really DO the upgrade...gonna try to clear cache & cookies and try again.

    I believe the problem is in upgrade length. 4.7.0 upgrade has a lot of modifications and changelog is too big, so depends on server configuration or aMember configuration there could be issues. Try to follow manual upgrade steps:

    I had this issue as well and was told to do another manual upgrade. Frustrating and manual upgrades with this many files surely couldn't be recommended as the safest way as it's easy to lose track and put files in the wrong places. Either way, I put the time in now doing the manual upgrade file overwrites so I guess I'll proceed with mine so I didn't totally waste my time.

    That is not necessary to upload files one by one.
    Most ftp clients allow recursive upload, so when you upload folder recursively, ftp client will create all subfolders and will put files into correct location.

    That would have been a helpful reply in my support tickets last week ;)

    Good to know for the future though.

    Still with an error...
    Can't seem to find out why.
    Support isn't very responsive.
    Anyone figure out why this occurs and what can be done to fix it?

    yeah..

    Finally got it figured out.

    I did have a ticket in for a couple of weeks though. Holiday schedule however limited response time severely.

    I'm so happy its fixed now.

    I had a trouble making wordpress plugin. Deactivated it and all is good.
