While we are very happy to see you have added an update script for future upgrades, that does not help us in attempting to update the 12+ sites we already have on V9.03.
Since we have these sites spread out over different servers, we looked at many techniques to save the data and images, so we could find a way to upload it to a new version. Collecting the images from so many multiple locations will be doable, but so far, due to the variations between the versions, including new requirements for different user passwords and the variables in DB fields, we could not find a simple way to move the data from a 9.3 v to a 9.10 V on a different server that is using a newer version of php.
If anyone has suggestions on how we can convert the db over to something acceptable for a new version on a different server and version of php, (going from 7.4 to 8.0) please please let us know.
If we have to do this manually, instead of using a Softaculous type auto script, we will, it will just take us a bit longer.
Thank You
FTW
