Update Guide:

• Check the update notes to make sure this update won't require a new setup process
• Back up your jjmumblebot.db and your config.ini files (both found in JJMumbleBot/cfg/ directory)
• Back up your custom_aliases.csv file if you have custom aliases registered
• Back up your custom_user_privileges.csv file if you have custom user privileges registered
• Back up your custom_permissions.csv file if you have custom permissions registered
• (Optional) Back up any custom plugins
• (Optional) Back up any stored permanent media if it is stored in the root directory (this is customizable in the config.ini)
• Download the latest version of the bot and use your previous config.ini, jjmumblebot.db, custom_permissions.csv, custom_user_privileges.csv, custom_aliases.csv files (unless the config.ini has changed)
• Update custom plugins to work with any possible changes in the latest update
• Update your config.ini file as required (you can use the config_template.ini file to see what's new)
