    SOLVED move gantry 4 site to gantry 5

    Posted 3 years 5 months ago
    • hello .. I have a request from someone who is running an old gantry 4 site using the Chimera theme v 1.4. Her hosting company is upgrading everyone to PHP 7.2 and her site/theme is incompatible. Can we upgrade it to Gantry 5 and the newest version of the Chimera, and will the site stay the same, or is there a lot of shuffling that will have to be done to make it look the same? We really just want to keep it up at this point so that it can be upgraded to PHP 7.2 and then she can have someone rebuild it.

    • Please note that by answering your own post you take yourself out of the MODS "unanswered posts" queue and therefore might have to wait longer for a response - it's better to edit your original post so this does not happen.

      There is no "upgrade" path from a Gantry 4 theme to and Gantry 5 theme. This is because the two frameworks are very different and do things in very different ways.

      To carry on using Gantry 4 all you need to do is to update Gantry 4, the template, and all other RT extensions to their respective latest versions. They all work on PHP 7.2.x and higher.

      Regards, Mark.
