To meet some requirements for website, I decided to do changes in umbraco source code. Before doing so I just want to be sure if there is any easy way to upgrade the source code in newer version? If I start changing in 4.11.1 version then is it easy to upgrade future version or I have to do manually?
You'd have to merge the changes manually (otherwise, when you perform a standard upgrade, your changes will be overwritten), which may or may not be quite complicated, depending on how much you change. Its generally recommended that you extend the core using the vailable event models etc rather than change the core itself, to avoid upgrade problems (that said, there are plenty of folks running custom Umbraco builds out there).
What are you needing to change in the core? It may be that you can accomplish it without needing to change the core at all.
Umbraco Source Upgrade to Newer Version
Hi all,
To meet some requirements for website, I decided to do changes in umbraco source code. Before doing so I just want to be sure if there is any easy way to upgrade the source code in newer version? If I start changing in 4.11.1 version then is it easy to upgrade future version or I have to do manually?
Thanks In Advance
Kind Regards
