+Then you need to be aware that 3.10.1 (3.10.0 was withdrawn) got rid of the HTML templates that you have been using, and introduced a lot of new settings.

 *Changes to web files included in two folders in distribution: <code>CumulusMX/web</code>, <code>CumulusMX/webfiles</code> and introduction of <code>CumulusMX/webfiles-legacy</code>
 **If you used the provided templates to produce web pages in earlier releases, or you had directly customised provided [[Customised templates|web templates]], these will no longer work
 **Please see [[New Default Web Site Information|New Default Web Site Information page]] for further advice
