I just found another thread, actually started by myself 🙂 some time ago:
https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-no-ad-id-set-check-your-syntax-after-update/
Here you explain how to do it. But I cannot find the intermediate version 4.18.2 for download. Is there another version that would work?
Thanks!
Last time I made the mistake of upgrading without intermediate versions. This time i tried to avoid it. Sorry but I cannot find 4.18.2. on this site 🙁
No idea where to get 4.1.18?
Maybe a different Version will do?
There seems to be a misunderstanding here. I need to update from 3.7.4.2 to the newest version. You told me that it has to be done not directly but by intermediate Versions:
—
Versions of AdRotate that old can no longer be updated without doing some ‘in-between’ updates.
For example to version 4.0, 4.18.2, 5.0 and then to the latest version.

But 4.18.2 does not exist, so I cannot work with your solution 🙁
Hi, somehow I lost track of this and another topic… so stupid late reply.
And yes, there is no version 4.18.2 for AdRotate, that’s a pro version.
So that’s confusing for your solution 😞
Anyway the idea is that you grab an early and last version of each major version as intermediate versions. So for example – 4.0 then 4.15.x then 5.0 and so on.
The early version isn’t really required, but I find it helps with the major version bump to eliminate the one in a million chance of that being an issue. One or 2 extra in-between updates is always faster than fixing a borked database because of old data or poor maintenance/old code or whatever quirks may lurk on your website/server.
That would have been the answer we were looking for a month ago.
But, since we could not reach you, we had no chance but do a complete reinstall of the current version. That worked, because there were not many active ads.
