Upgrading your UGC website extension

Update a number of files that have changed. The UGC feature is deprecated as of SDL Tridion Sites 9.1.

Procedure

  1. Access the library location of the web application that contains your UGC website extension.
  2. Delete all JAR files with the name BASENAME-VERSION.jar, where VERSION is any version string, and BASENAME is any string starting with ugc.
  3. On the installation media, navigate to the folder Content Delivery\roles\ugc\extension-web\rest\java\lib\.
  4. Copy over all files from the installation media to the web application's library directory, overwriting files when prompted.
  5. From the installation media folder Content Delivery\resources\taglib\META-INF\, copy the file ugc.tld to the META-INF/ directory of your web application, overwriting the existing file by the same name.
  6. Restart your web application.
