Version 6.0.2 has now been released. This version is a patch release that introduces a number of bug fixes since the last release. Upgrading is strongly advised due to fixes for incorrect hack-attack alerts.

Your upgrade to version 6.0.2
You can generate an upgrader from any version of ocPortal to any other version. If you access this upgrade post via the version information box on your Admin Zone front page then we'll automatically know what version you're running.

CSS change required for custom themes
As we have changed the header tags used on panels you may need to make a CSS change. In the
global.css change all the rules to include '!important' on them and add some new ones:
Code
text-transform: none !important;
width: auto !important;
margin-left: 0 !important;
The default theme's version of the rules look like this:
Code
.standardbox_title_panel {
/* Structure */
border-bottom: 1px solid #8ba4ca !important; /* {$,wizard, 61% seed + 39% W/B} */
background-color: #e3eaf6 !important; /* {$,wizard, 11% (seed sat_to 100) + 89% W/B} */
/* Text */
padding-top: 0.6em !important;
padding-bottom: 0.6em !important;
padding-{!en_left}: 5px !important;
color: #0d1522 !important; /* {$,wizard, 20% seed + 80% !W/B} */
font-weight: bold !important;
font-size: 1em !important;
text-transform: none !important;
width: auto !important;
margin-left: 0 !important;
}
the only likely difference to yours would be the colour codes.
Sorry for the inconvenience. We consider accessibility issues bugs and this was a cross-site issue that needed to be fixed.
