How to Update
Updating your CE Phoenix Cart is not usually a step when first installing but CE Phoenix Cart is regularly updated with improvements.
You can check the version of CE Phoenix Cart that you are using - from Admin go to
Tools → Version Checker
If you are using the latest version you will see like this:
If there are newer versions available you will see like this:
The table will list all versions newer than your installed version.
Updating must be done sequentially, version by version
Click the Version number in the table which will go to that release in the CE Phoenix Cart GitHub repository.
Instructions for updating are released with the download.
Updates cannot be tested before release on every individual setup, for example, on every host server together with every possible add-on and individual configuration so it would not be surprising if some things do not work after updating.
Therefore, it is advisable to apply updates to a Test Shop first. Find fixes for things that do not work before applying the update to a Live Shop.
Fixes for add-ons should be found from the creator of the add-on, otherwise the Support Forum is very helpful.
It is recommended to always back up the database and site files before making any changes.
It is recommended to always make a record of any changes made to the site.
