 * Hi
 * I’m running version 0.9.5 of CPT UI , sadly last time I tried to update the plugin
   it broke the Custom post types. Can anyone suggest the best way to upgrade from
   such an early version of the plugin?

 * Honestly, there’s not really much to it other than just diving into the task.
 * I’d recommend standard tips: back up the database, backup the plugin files, try
   it on a dev clone of the site first to see what breaks, and if anything does,
   work out how to prevent or fix the issues, etc.
 * The biggest thing to keep in mind is that we switched the option keys that get
   used for the plugin, and you may need to flush your permalinks right away. The
   old options key/value pairs get left behind, and not removed, in case you need
   to revert again for some reason.
 * Let us know if you have any questions or concerns now, or during the update process.
