Major EspoCRM version upgrades that need planning around extensions, customizations, PHP versions and the CLI upgrade process.
Planning the move from EspoCRM 9.x to 10: removed deprecated backend and frontend APIs that break custom code, extension compatibility, PHP prerequisites, CLI-only upgrades by default, staging tests, and new features such as record locking and multiple pipelines.
Upgrading older EspoCRM 8 installs to version 9: what 9.0 added such as collaborators, app secrets and multiple assigned users, PHP checks, extension compatibility and a tested backup first.
Upgrading containerized EspoCRM: pulling new images, recreating containers with the same volumes and configuration for Docker Run or Compose, and the daemon and database containers.
Planning PHP upgrades around EspoCRM: why an EspoCRM upgrade stops when the next version needs newer PHP, supported PHP 8.3 to 8.5, extension modules to reinstall and testing order.
Avoiding broken extensions during EspoCRM upgrades: acceptableVersions and PHP ranges in extension manifests, official extension releases, custom code in the custom directory and staging tests.
