The new administration GUI design is amazing. It's responsive design is a game changer. Now it's eZ to edit your eZ Publish Website Content on the go on your phone or tablet!

Best wishes to all the eZ Community in 2024 and happy holidays!

Just wondering, how easy is it to upgrade a site from v2012.11 (5.??) to v6?

Hello Harry!

Because 7x maintained eZ Standards the upgrade is as expected, easy to do in minutes! I do upgrades regularly now and they are pain free and quick.

First clone the GitHub repository / get the files for 6.0.6. Trust me you want the latest stabilization improvements available only in the latest release.

Start a new installation and then move in your previous installation extensions, settings, design, var dir content, etc.

You'll need to pay close attention to the database sql upgrades that you need before the code will work with your modified database content.

I estimate even with custom extensions you could upgrade in 1 hour the core kernel + settings + database updates, this is standard to the documentation for 6.0 upgrades:

https://ezpublish.doc.ezpublish.one/eZ-Publish/Upgrading/Upgrading-to-60.html

I estimate that in 2 hours you could have patched any v4 -> v5 specifics in api usage in custom extensions to remain compatible and working warning free.

I would be happy to help you more directly if you would like to start a conversation in our telegram live chat support channel.
