Possible? Upgrade from v.1.4.10 to 2.6?

Post by faqqer23 »

Hello.

I have version v.1.4.10 on an old website, but it is full of info that is still good. I want to put it back into service.

Can that software version be upgraded to version 2.6? :? Or, how to import that data and its structure into version 2.6? :?

Thanks.

EDIT: I found the older files. It looks like I can upgrade to 2.0 then to 2.6.17. Thanks.

Thanks for your reply, Thorsten.

I had a problem opening the 2.0.0 archive - maybe it needed to be re-downloaded. I downloaded and installed 2.0.17 instead, then upgraded to the current 2.6.17. Both upgrades performed beautifully. The instructions and entire process -- well done!

Hi,

yes, always use the latest version of each branch... they have the smallest number of issues. :-)

Thanks for the feedback! It's always great to see longtime users!
