Epilogue

Upd: Русская версия статьи: Миграция с Joomla 1.5 на Joomla 2.5. Эпилог.

The series of articles which this afterword accomplishes does not claim the complete guide to migration of website on Joomla 1.5 to Joomla 2.5. It does not cover transfer of such powerful and popular tools like K2, components of forums, online stores, galleries and heaps of other extensions. The question of the multilingual site transfer was not broght up either. Many issues were considered rather superficially. On top of that this guide is outdated - as, indeed, any information instantly becomes obsolete in the rapid progress of digital technology. It is - on the one hand.

On the other hand - I am sure that there are many Joomla fans for which my experience will be useful. The value of the material presented primarily is that the author himself has repeatedly met all the recommended actions and achieved positive results.

I really hope that your results will exceed my humble achievements. I would also be happy to receive feedback on written - both positive and complimentary :))

And finally, for the millionth time: back up before any action! One cannot be too careful, always remember that.
