[edit] Backup your site
The update process is generally safe, but it's always a good idea to make a backup before updating. So please go ahead and make a backup of your site now.
[edit] Install the hotfix patch via Extension Manager.
[edit] Go to the Install from URL tab
[edit] Copy and Past the Update URL
The URL for the hot patch is: http://joomlacode.org/gf/download/frsrelease/17575/76677/joomla_3-0-0_hotpatch.zip. Copy and paste this into the Install URL text box.
[edit] Install
If you have any difficulty installing from URL, download the file to your computer and install using Upload Package File.
[edit] Set the Joomla! Update Server to Short Term Support
Navigate to Components→Joomla! Update and click the Options button. Change the Update server to Short Term Support as shown below.
Click Save & Close to save the change.
[edit] Update to Joomla 3.0.1 via the Joomla! update component
After getting the success message, go to Components >> Joomla! Update.
Note #1: If you are not getting the "Note: Hot patch for 3.0.1 update is installed" message, then please repeat Step 2 or ask for some help from a trusted developer.
Note #2: If you're not getting the "Joomla! update was found", click on Purge Cache button.
If you see both of the above, Install the Update.
Note #3: If you use FTP, you might have to FTP the update package, which you can download at:
