    Upgrade Umbraco 4.7.2 based website to Umbraco 7.1.1

    Hi,

     

    Can any one suggest me how to upgrade 4.7.2 to current version 7.1.1?

    is it possible easily? I am afraid about uComponent. we are using it.

    Hi Yasir

    You can use the upgrade documentation and perhaps Lee Kellehers stash of old Umbraco releases will come in handy during the process.

    Also be aware of any custom API integration there might be, since the underlying API's has changed since the version you're upgrading from.

    And as you mention be aware of 3rd party packages such as uComponents and others wether they're compatible or not. In regards to uComponents - regarding the latter I can't remember if it's necessary any longer, but it's probably a good idea to read this post about it from Lee Kelleher.

    Make sure to make a backup of the database and your files before starting anything.

    If it's possible for you to use some kind of source control like git or mercurial it might be a good idea to do so since it's easy to rollback the file changes.

    Hope some of these pointers help.

    /Jan
