# Which installation installed?

 * Hello everyone,
 * I just finished One-Button install of WP via my cpanel only to find out that 
   there is an upgrade. The info provided before the install says version 1.5. Is
   there a way to find out which version actually installed?
 * Now, if I don’t have the upgrade (I’m assuming I need this), can I just replace
   the changed files? I’ve already changed some things on the theme template, etc
   and would prefer not to lost them.
 * Any help would be appreciated.
 * Thanks again

 * promomom, look at rss feeds. That is load the rss feed in your browser and do
   view source. You will see something like `<!-- generator="wordpress/1.5.1.1" --
   >` at the top. if it’s 1.5.1.1 then you have the latest.

 * or, I should say, you can also open up the `wp-includes/version.php` file to 
   see what version you have.

 * Thanks Matt..
 * I have version 1.5 installed. So, now can I just replace the updated files or
   is it a whole new install?
 * Thanks again

 * You can replace everything *but* what’s in the wp-contents/ directory, which 
   will protect your template changes.
 * Then run wp-admin/upgrade.php.

 * OK, so I reinstalled. Fixed a wp-config error…now, I get this error on the theme
   template I’m using..
 * WordPress database error: [Unknown column ‘time_modified’ in ‘order clause’]
   
   SELECT * FROM wp_posts WHERE post_status = ‘static’ ORDER BY time_modified ASC
 * Can someone tell me what this means?
 * Thanks

 * I just deleted that line. I saved it in another file just in case I needed it
   later :))
 * So, looks like everything is installed fine. I just have to create the categories
   and links again.
 * Thanks for your help.

 * _I just have to create the categories and links again._
    In that case something
   went wrong during the upgrade because all the categories and links are supposed
   to be there after an upgrade.
