Frequently Asked Questions
What data does jUpgradePro migrate?
jUpgradePro migrates all essential content: articles, categories, users, user groups, menus, modules, core components, configurations and more. Third-party extensions must be migrated manually.
Which method should I choose?
Use the Database method if you have direct database access (local migrations or same server). Use the RESTful method if the source site is on a remote server or you don't have database access.
Is it safe to migrate my production site?
Yes, but we always recommend making a complete backup before any migration. The RESTful method is especially safe as it doesn't modify the source site, only reads data.
Can I migrate from Joomla 3 to Joomla 2.5?
Yes, jUpgradePro supports downgrade from Joomla 3.x to previous versions like 2.5, although this is a less common operation and requires more attention.
Do I need technical knowledge?
jUpgradePro is designed to be easy to use, but basic Joomla knowledge helps. With the Enterprise plan we offer full migration service where we do all the work.
