Assess an upgrade against the real store
The starting version is only part of the decision. Theme, modules, customisations and integrations determine the work required. An initial inventory helps choose the approach and identify adaptations, licences and external components before setting the implementation plan.
Prepare and validate a test copy
We work in a separate version to check catalogue, combinations, customers and orders, alongside payment and shipping flows. Tests use representative operational scenarios. Differences found are fixed or documented before preparing publication.
Preserve important pages and journeys
Categories and products may have accumulated links and search demand. We inventory URLs and plan preservation or redirects to appropriate equivalents. We review navigation, canonicals, sitemaps and languages in affected journeys, coordinating the technical change with SEO.
Prepare this stage with our PrestaShop migration and SEO checklist. It brings together URL, redirect, catalogue and order checks to help define what to validate before and after deployment.
Coordinate the switchover and check continuity
The upgrade concludes with final synchronisation, backups and an agreed change window. After publication, we check critical flows and monitor initial operation. RedeShop documents the work and recommendations for maintaining the new version.
