Upgrade from version 1.4.8.2 to 1.7


Recommended Posts

I've been having difficulties of late with the earlier version. My modules are NOT showing up on the Modules page. Also, I'm getting something called, a backwards compatibility error when tring to work with PayPal couponing. I'd like to update the software to the current version but don't want to lose evrything in my shop and start over. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Your best hope is to keep the data, so you'd better perform incremental upgrades, latest 1.4 -> latest 1.5 -> latest 1.6 ->latest 1.7.

You'll end up with the 1.7.5.0 working with default theme and modules.

Your third-party modules will be disabled (you can do this from start) along with your current theme.

Then hunt for the current 1.7+ versions of those disabled modules and install them.

The DB will be preserved and the data kept which is the most important thing.
