Bug after update from 1.0.7.4 to 1.0.7.5 or higher version

After you update Faveo from 1.0.7.4 to any of the higher version. Email functionality might not work.

In Laravel by default encryption key is being saved in config>>app.php In the version after 1.0.7.4 we have moved this key from app.php to .env file. So that it is easy to update Faveo in the future. We missed out on making this change in the update script and release notes.

Step 1:

So before you migrate from 1.0.7.4 to any new version make sure you copy the key to .env file in the format APP_KEY=F70u5RfMoiq7ptPR where F70u5RfMoiq7ptPR is the key

Step 2:

After the key has been copied, enter your email address again here Admin Panel >> Email >> Emails, make this new email address default and delete the old one.

Special case:

Incase you have already migrated from 1.0.7.4 to higher version add the key manually to .env file and then follow step 2.

This issue doesn't occur on all the versions. You need to follow this article only if email functionality on your Faveo has stopped working after the update.

We are extremely sorry this went unnoticed. We will be following more stringent testing next time

Incase you want us to correct your copy of Faveo send us and email on support@ladybirdweb.com mention FTP and Faveo login details.
