Hello!
Updating PrestaShop from version 1.7.8.9 to 8.2 for three stores is a task that will require several steps to ensure the stable operation of all functions and modules. Here is the plan on how I would approach this:
1. **Preparation Stage**:
- Create a backup of all data (files, database) for each store, so that in case of errors, changes can be rolled back.
- Deploy a testing environment for each store to perform the update and testing without risking the live sites.
2. **Updating the Core Platform**:
- Apply the PrestaShop update from version 1.7.8.9 to 8.2 for each of the stores.
- Ensure that all modules are compatible with the new version. For standard PrestaShop modules, there are usually no issues, but their functionality will need to be checked.
3. **Theme Compatibility Check**:
- The "Creative Elements by WebshopWorks" theme will be tested on the new version of PrestaShop.
- If the theme is incompatible with 8.2, I will adapt it to ensure all elements are displayed correctly.
4. **Functionality Testing**:
- Check the operation of all store functions (cart, checkout, payment systems, etc.).
- Ensure that modules such as SEO, email notifications, synchronization with payment systems, and other integrations work as intended.
5. **Post-Update**:
- Check and configure SEO to minimize any loss of rankings in search engines after the update.
- Make additional adjustments to improve performance and security.
**Expected Cost**:
- **Update for one store**: from 15,000 to 20,000 rubles depending on the complexity of working with the theme and modules.
- **For 3 stores**: the total cost will be from 45,000 to 60,000 rubles.
**Timeline**:
- Usually, updating one store takes from 3 to 5 working days. For 3 stores, it may take about 1–1.5 weeks.
If you have any additional requests or specifics for the update, please let me know, and I will adjust the plan.
Best regards,
Timur
