My question is if i did an upgrade how do i prevent my user from being lost.
What part of the patch do i really need to do and is it and different then the current version or should i just wait for 6.1?
Upgrading with the patch will not make you lose your current members or their information.
If you feel uncomfortable about it, just make a back up of the database and the files that you change. ( I would recommend doing that anyway). This way if something goes wrong, all you have to do it recover the database
