I am trying to update magento ce-1.4.0.1 to ce-1.8. Following the guide I am suposed to
Archive any custom theme packages in the magento-install-dir/app/design/frontend and magento-install-dir/skin/frontend directories.
Does this include base
and default
folders? I guess the update will change these files so I would not include them but on the other hand some modules might have added files here.
What would be the best way to go here?
