Downgrade To Support Theme


Recommended Posts

I set up my account only a few days ago and bought a theme for my store. However, upon further scrutiny (after installation of the theme just wouldn't work), I realised the theme isn't supported. Is there any way I can downgrade my version of PrestaShop without a backup? Or should I just cut my losses?

what version you're using now and to what version you want to downgrade?

to be honest, it is possible, but is VERY VERY hard to downgrade prestashop

there is no modules / easy way to achieve that

 

its due to the fact, that update is related not only to the core, but also to the database

I am trying to do the same thing, downgrading from 1.5.6 to 1.5.4.1 (I used the 1-Click Update to upgrade from 1.4.9 to 1.5.6). I'm thinking of using the rollback function to restore it back to 1.4.9, and then use 1-Click Update "Private Release" option to point it to http://www.prestashop.com/download/old/prestashop_1.5.4.1.zip and the md5 hashkey will be from "/config/settings.inc.php" the COOKIE KEY.

 

Will that work?

I'm having the same issue....the free themes all seem to run on PS v 1.5.2 and 1.5.3.1 and i'm running on latest version, i just imported the older version to my hosting site (ipage dashboard) not knowing (stopping to think) that would make me loose all the product info and settings... :( sigh!

 

I have one of their techs trying to reverse it for me...if they can restore it back to new version with all my shop info

can you upload your shop back up of new version to an older one?

 

is there anyway that i don't have to start from scratch again?

 

pls help! though i don't find some of the earlier comment inspiring at all :(

 

cheers

so does that mean that if i require and earlier version PS to run a theme i want to use i have to start over??
