  • javascript/base.js
  • javascript/common.js
  • javascript/opc.js
  • javascript/opc/billing.js
  • javascript/opc/payment.js

  • LaThreads/templates/pages/product/elements/element-secondary-images.html
  • LaThreads/templates/pages/product/product.html
  • LaThreads/templates/panels/panel-newsletters-subscribe.html

This action is necessary to ensure that your cart has all the necessary bug fixes related to this release. Because the files are renamed, you can apply the difference between your skin file and the original engine skin file to the .381r1 suffixed file. When you are satisfied with the change, you can rename the file and remove the .381r1 suffix. After doing, clear the Skin Cache by logging in to the admin area and going to Cart Settings > Appearance Settings and clicking on the Refresh Theme button.
