About this gig
Is your Prestashop outdated? You risk security hacks and lost sales. Upgrading to version 8 or 9 is a complex database migration. One mistake means lost orders.
I am Mikael, a Senior Architect. I use a strict "Zero Data Loss" protocol.
MY PROCESS:
- Backup: Files and Database secured.
- Staging: Work on private server. Live site stays ONLINE.
- Migration: Data moved to fresh install.
- Verification: We test together.
- Go Live: Minimal downtime.
WHAT IS PRESERVED?
- Products, Customers, Orders history
- SEO URLs (Crucial for Google!)
- Images, Passwords
PACKAGES:
1. BASIC (Minor Patch) Update within the SAME version (ex: 8.0 to 8.1).
- System Update
- Full Backup
- No major version change
2. STANDARD (Data Migration) Moving from 1.6/1.7 to 8/9.
- ALL DATA Migration
- Installation of "Classic" Theme
- NOTE: Old theme/modules are incompatible. This covers DATA only.
3. PREMIUM (Turnkey) The complete overhaul.
- Everything in Standard
- Installation of your NEW Theme
- Configuration of Native Modules
- Speed Check
WARNING: Themes and modules from 1.6 or 1.7 are NOT compatible with version 8 or 9. They must be replaced. My packages cover the complex Data Migration.

FAQ
What does the upgrade process involve?
The upgrade process includes backing up your current store, migrating your data, and updating your Prestashop system to the latest version. I'll also provide a temporary URL for you to test the new version before the final switch.
Will I lose any data during the upgrade?
No, your data is safe. All important information, including products, orders, customers, and more, will be preserved. I ensure a seamless transition without any data loss.
How long will my store be down during the upgrade?
Your store will only experience downtime for 2-3 hours while we finalize the upgrade. During this time, the new version will replace the old one.
What if I need more than 5 modules upgraded or have custom modules/themes?
For more than 5 modules, you can purchase additional gigs. If your modules or themes require paid upgrades, you will need to provide the necessary licenses.
Can I test the upgraded store before it goes live?
Absolutely! You'll have access to a temporary URL to test the new version thoroughly before the final switchover.
Do I need to purchase new licenses for my modules and themes?
Only if your current versions are incompatible with the latest Prestashop version and require a paid upgrade. I will inform you in advance if this is necessary.
How do I know if my store needs an upgrade?
An upgrade is essential if you're using an outdated Prestashop version, which can expose your store to security risks and limit new features. Updating ensures your store is secure, efficient, and up-to-date.
How do I start the upgrade process?
Simply select the package that suits your needs and place an order. I'll guide you through the entire process and handle all the technical aspects.

This was a Prestashop upgrade project from 1.6 to 8.1.
