Migration from joomla 3 to joomla 4
First read the official instructions of this mini migration by clicking here. Then, let's say you used the a4joomla-best joomla 3 template. These are my template related instructions if you don't want to lose your template parameter settings, and template modifications:
- You have joomla 3.x, now backup your site e.g. with Akeeba Backup
- Save the old template, especially your user.css if you have one in the css folder
- Update joomla to joomla 3.10, clear the cache if you have, and test the site in incognito mode of your browser
- Update the extensions, and test the site again
- Set Protostar to the default template
- Update joomla 3 to joomla 4, and test the site, now you should see the Cassiopeia template.
- Remove the a4joomla-best folder in an FTP client, or delete the folders and files of the template from the admin area if possible. Thus we keep the old template settings in the database, and we remove just the old template files and folders.
- Install a4joomla-best4.zip! Now you will have two template styles with the same name: a4joomla-best. Try to set them to default, and test the site to see, which one contains your old template parameter settings. Keep that one, and you can delete the other template style.
- Update other extensions, test the site, etc.
Some CSS classes should be replaced if you hide some of your modules on mobile with css classes in the "Module class suffix". You can find the new css classes for hiding modules here. You can hide modules on different display sizes: xs=extra small, sm=small, md=middle, lg=large, xl=extra large, xxl=the largest.
We have just released our new responsive professional joomla 3 - 3.8 template: a4joomla-Tiger3R, a new cross-browser compatible, customizable, professional joomla template with 11 module positions, 5 color schemes: aqua, gold, purple, blue and green, tableless portal or blog layout, dropdown menu. A free version of this joomla template is also available in aqua scheme.
Joomla 3.4 was released a few days ago, and by now all joomla 3.x templates were updated to work well on joomla 3.4. (One exception: the Countryside template should be replaced by Countryside3R.) When updating joomla to version 3.4, I experienced a bug: the Bootstrap size of the module with the largest ID is modified by the update process. So I suggest to check that module, and modify the Bootstrap size of it to its original value (0, or your original choice). This can be done in the module manager, in the advanced settings of that module.
After updating joomla to version 3.4, you can install the joomla 3.4 template, but it overwrites your old template files. So if you modified the old template's code, then save your modifications first!
The joomla 2.5 templates don't work on joomla 3-3.4!
