Every part of your Joomla website, upgraded to Joomla 6
Joomla 2, 3, 4 and 5 to Joomla 6
We upgrade Joomla 2, 3, 4 and 5 websites to Joomla 6, whichever version you run today. Older versions need more work than newer ones, so we review your website first and give you a clear scope and quote. Once the upgrade is done your website runs on the current Joomla core with its latest security fixes.
Components, plugins and modules
Every component, plugin and module on your website is upgraded to a Joomla 6 compatible version. When an extension is no longer supported by its developer, we replace it with a current one that is actively maintained and kept up to date. Nothing is left on an old version that could hold the upgrade back or open a security gap.
Custom components and modules
Many Joomla websites run custom built components or modules that stop working on newer versions. We upgrade each custom component and module to be compatible with Joomla 6 and the latest PHP. Your custom features keep working the way your business needs them to.
The latest PHP
A Joomla 6 website needs a modern PHP version, so your website moves to PHP 8.4 as part of the upgrade. We fix any code that does not work with PHP 8.4 before your website goes live. If your current hosting cannot run PHP 8.4, we move your website to hosting that can.
How we keep your Joomla upgrade safe
