Most scripts require Python. You need to download Python from www.python.org and install it. There are two versions of python: version 2.x and version 3.x. Version 2.x is the most widely used. All pp-scripts work with python 2.x. Some scripts may work with python 3.x but most will fail.
Put scripts into ppscripts-folder (option ScriptDir). The scripts should then appear in NZBGet web-interface.
If you want to reuse a configuration file from another NZBGet installation see Backup and restore settings.
Version 15 supports automatic updates via web-interface: Settings -> SYSTEM -> Check for updates.
In a case automatic update doesn’t work the update can be made manually by manually downloading and installing of a newer version over the existing installation:
That’s all, now you can start NZBGet. If you see messages like “Option xxx obsolete”, don’t worry. They just to inform you about changes in the new version. Go to settings page and click Save all changes. The obsolete options will be removed from config file.
