If you have issues with upgrade, please create a separate topic in the Installation and Upgrade Help section.

Upgrade can take long if you have a large `email` table. As a new field is added, it can take some time to apply schema update.

Hi yuri ,

I have tested the MySQL related changes and they work fine.

The themes in version 9.2 are quite pale (Hazyblue) compared to the ones before version 9.2. Even the icons are have gone blurred. The same with Voilet, Sakura, Light and Espo themes. Is there something wrong with installation?

Hi,

We changed navbar colors in themes from contrast to non-contrast. It’s been a trend for a while, and it makes sense, it’s less distracting to the eye, as a high-contrast sidebar tends to draw attention away from the main content.

We might need to tweak colors of the Hazyblue theme to make the navbar more brither though.

It's easy to change colors with CSS variables if you would like keep the previous navbar colors.

Here's the list of variables with values from the Espo theme.

--navbar-bg: #f1f3f5;
--navbar-link-color: #999;
--navbar-link-icon-color: #6a6a6a;
--navbar-link-hover-color: #555555;
--navbar-link-hover-bg: #f1f3f5;
--navbar-link-active-bg: #d3d9e0;
--navbar-inverse-color: #999;
--navbar-inverse-bg: #f1f3f5;
--navbar-inverse-link-color: #333333;
--navbar-inverse-link-active-bg: #dee1e7;
--navbar-inverse-border: #e0e2e3;
--navbar-inverse-toggle-hover-bg: #d3d9e0;
--navbar-inverse-link-hover-color: #333333;
--navbar-inverse-link-hover-bg: #ececed;
--navbar-inverse-link-disabled-color: #444;
--navbar-inverse-link-icon-color: #5c5c5c;
--navbar-inverse-link-icon-hover-color: #5c5c5c;
