Anyway it has no difference for meIt is conversion but some people also say migrate. Plus, migrate doesn't really make sense to use instead of upgrade because you are upgrading a software rather than migrating it.
Re: Items Needed To Be Added Into The Wiki Reply #31 – February 26, 2015, 01:04:39 am Nobody uses conversion for the change of a software here in germany. Migration is the term always used. I am for "patch" and "migration".

What do yall think?
Re: Items Needed To Be Added Into The Wiki Reply #33 – February 26, 2015, 01:46:05 am Sorry, missunderstanding. Patch = 1.0.2 to 1.0.3Upgrade = 1.0.2 to 1.1.0 or to 2.0.0Migration = Software XYZ to ElkArte
Re: Items Needed To Be Added Into The Wiki Reply #34 – February 26, 2015, 06:15:37 am Random thoughts (I already burned my brain with the other post lol).I tend to use "conversion" for the move from one software to another.Interesting the "migration" term, I don't know much about joomla.Reading the https://docs.joomla.org/Why_Migrate page and https://docs.joomla.org/Portal:Upgrading_Versions , the term seems to be used for major "upgrades" (i.e. 1.x to 2.0), and in that sense it is not a bad idea. Actually, at some point, it may be useful to have this distinction[1], but on the other hand it may make things more confused... Spoiler (click to show/hide)And now you are giving me the terrible idea that the major upgrades may be dealt with OpenImporter, making them really a sort of "conversion"...no, I shall not think about that, it's too early!! xDTo think.1 Because the two operations are technically quite different: during a 1.0 to 1.1 "upgrade" the theory is that everything (addons and themes) should still be compatible, while during an 1.x to 2.0 few things may break (badly).↵

Whatever you decide on for the name, just open an bug/issue on github so the request does not get lost and I'll get it taken care of!

Also, upgrade would mean, adding stuff to your house but keeping location, base and everything the same (aka known as renovation), but in this case, upgrade We can use migrate, but it will confuse people, I believe. And okie, thank you @spuds 1 Because the two operations are technically quite different: during a 1.0 to 1.1 "upgrade" the theory is that everything (addons and themes) should still be compatible, while during an 1.x to 2.0 few things may break (badly).↵

Re: Items Needed To Be Added Into The Wiki Reply #39 – February 28, 2015, 05:46:35 pm Thank you, I now ELkArte is different than SMF but we don't need any file permission changes. Please I you might want to add that magic_quotes need to be set to off for the installation to run.
