+#############################
+Upgrading from 3.1.6 to 3.1.7
+#############################
+
+Before performing an update you should take your site offline by
+replacing the index.php file with a static one.
+
+Step 1: Update your CodeIgniter files
+=====================================
+
+Replace all files and directories in your *system/* directory.
+
+.. note:: If you have any custom developed files in these directories,
+ please make copies of them first.
+
+Step 2: Remove usage of CAPTCHA helper extra parameters (deprecation)
+=====================================================================
+
+The :doc:`CAPTCHA Helper <../helpers/captcha_helper>` function
+:php:func:`create_captcha()` allows passing of its ``img_path``, ``img_url``
+and ``font_path`` options as the 2nd, 3rd and 4th parameters respectively.
+
+This kind of usage is now deprecated and you should just pass the options
+in question as part of the first parameter array.
+
+.. note:: The functionality in question is still available, but you're
+ strongly encouraged to remove its usage sooner rather than later.
