yggdrasil Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 I'm curious to people running v7 on production systems. Are you experience major bugs and problems? I have plenty of modules and modifications, so I'm wondering if I should wait longer until its more stable before upgrading. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kian Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 The best thing you can do is cloning your existing WHMCS v6 installation with all modules and custom scripts, upgrade to v7 and see what happens. You can't predict what modules will cause problems. The latest version of WHMCS could break them in multiple ways. First of all it runs with a newer version of Smarty. The syntax has changed a bit and can cause fatal errors especially in foreach/section/for loops with variables used as keys in a way that is no longer valid. Secondly several important files in includes directory no longer exist (e.g. countries.php). All modules that are still including/requiring them can give you fatal errors because of 404. Thirdly Bootstrap. The issues that Bootstrap and Smarty face are similar. It's newer so you can expect some HTML/CSS bugs. Anyway from my experience a vanilla installation of WHMCS v7 it ok. Same story for WHMCS v7 with modules that are compatible with v7. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
