Upgrading

[e-com]

Transition from PHP 7 to PHP 8 is quite a revolution, and this Panda template is an antique made for TB 1.1.0.
A template is not only the template itself but also probably several or more modules installed together with the template. And it's unlikely any of them are compatible with PHP 8.
It should be up to developer, who sells the template, to have an up-to-date product.
Also, in my opinion, it's best to write to ST-THEMES to take some time and make an update of their template to TB 1.4.0 with PHP 8.

You are right of course... I have just sent a email asking if they are or not.... Can let you know either way

[AndyC]

email I got from them

Thanks for contacting us, maybe we will update the panda TB to be compatible with PHP 8.

If he doesn't update I may be forced to go over to Prestashop and try it

I know it's been a long time since this post but I think it is time I bit the bullet and upgraded

What is required if I buy the upgrade to the latest version as it doesn't really say.

thanks

Succesfully or with some issues?
If the server trys to force you, change the server. Some server cause errors.

Hi Andy,

you can buy support time on our website. We will be happy to help upgrade your store. Are you talking about core update only, or do you need update of PHP as well?

Hi
Want to get it all up and running on the latest core and modules theme as well
Panda theme
Product Fields manager v2.4.2 - by Anvanto ( later versions don't seem to work)
Nochex APC Module v2.2 - by Nochex

are the most important modules .Although Fields manager plays havoc with any payment module and has had to be modified to work
