Hello,

We are using Joomla 3.9.8 with AcyMailing V5.10.4 starter version and we have subscribbed the Enterprise version. We have downloaded the latest version for Joomla (V7.7.4) from our Dashboard.
Can we install directly the package by using normal Joomla installation process tu upgrade from V5 starter to V7 enterprise ?
The server is still with PHP5.6 and we plan to migrate it to PHP7.4, should we wait the server migration or can we make the plugin upgrade just now ?

Thank you for your reply.

Best regards

Version 5 and version 7 are completely different and separate extensions. As such, there is no direct upgrade path from version 5 to version 7. There is only clean installation of version 7 and then migration of the data from version 5 to version 7, using migration wizard

With that said, you can install both version 5 and version 7 extensions on the same site to test version 7. It should work with PHP5.6. But there is a strong possibility that something might not work correctly. To be honest, since PHP 5.6 has been retired more than three years ago, even before we started the development of version 6 (now version 7), you can imagine that we didn't care much about the compatibility with PHP 5.6

Hello Mihha,

Thank you for your answer.
So I can use the Joomla Version 5.10.25 and upgrade the V5.10.4 starter ?

Thank you.

Yes, you can install the latest version 5.10.24 Enterprise and that will do an upgrade of your Starter version
