### Two Features - Force Local Update - Use Key
[00:11:13](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lkE0ZiSWufg&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h11m13s)
There is two features. This 'Force Local Update' may be explained as follow. If under normal circumstances an import is done, the import function looks at the data that are currently in this JCB install. For example: Field types, Fields, Admin views and Site views is involved. [00:11:42](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lkE0ZiSWufg&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h11m42s) If it finds a site view that is being installed, that is already in the current database, it looks at the last modified date, and then by that determines whether the current installed version is the most recent. If it is the latest version, it will by default ignore the new data and not install it. Sometimes you may get a package, which make it necessary to force it to update the current data even though it may include all the data. This is the function of the 'Force Local Update' switch. Click 'yes' to force the update. [00:12:20](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lkE0ZiSWufg&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h12m20s)<<<<<<<<<<<

Copy that key from Joomla Components. This key will then always be necessary if this package is imported. Click continue. This is quite a huge dataset and may take a while. You could just patiently wait. It will indicate that the install had been successful.<<<<<<<<<<
We have a key for this package, so we'll leave this to yes. I'll just come over here(Joomla Components) and copy that key. This key will then always be necessary if you're importing this package. That will be it and we'll click continue. It might take a time since this is quite a huge dataset. You could just patiently wait. At last it is installed, it tells us that the install is being successful. You might get these warnings.
### Warnings - Remapped
Now what these warnings is really telling you, [00:13:01](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lkE0ZiSWufg&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h13m01s) is that during the install you realize that lots of ids will change. We are working with a database that creates ids as the new item is added. Since these are the ids is used to link into the various components, views and places, all these ids must be remapped. We have been able to [00:13:30](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lkE0ZiSWufg&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h13m30s) find a very well formulated algorithm to resolve this problem. So it remaps all the ids. Sometimes there are certain ids that wasn't possible to remap. We are telling you about them. You could see that the target field in the admin views has a mismatch in the field with id.244. You can go back to the old install, and try and find out what happened there. [00:14:04](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lkE0ZiSWufg&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h14m04s) Most of the time when I have reviewed this, usually it is because that specific field is no longer published or is no longer available for some reason. So this is just giving you a heads up of any changes that may have occurred. You can go to these various places and manually fix them. Most of the time these warnings will not show and everything will just say all is right. If there is warnings and errors just simply read the messages slowly and closely. I'm sure you'll be able to resolve it [00:14:43](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lkE0ZiSWufg&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h14m43s) quite easily.
