Summary
Introduction and Sponsorship: Tim Davis introduces the video and mentions sponsors CyberSalt's Joomla training cohort and mysites.guru.
Core Migration Path: The built-in Joomla 3 migration tools work well for sites using only core extensions.
Third-Party Extensions: When using third-party extensions, running the pre-update check is necessary to ensure compatibility.
Best Practices: Before migrating, make a copy of your site and practice the migration process in a safe environment.
Benefits of MigrateMe 4: MigrateMe 4 simplifies the migration process by allowing one-click migrations and creating a staging area.
Configuration: Tim shows how to configure MigrateMe 4, turning off unnecessary backups and safe mode for the demonstration.
Running Migration: He demonstrates the migration process, which creates a copy of the site in a subfolder with separate database tables.
Handling Errors: If there are errors in the test migration, it can be redone easily without affecting the live site.
Safe Mode Usage: Safe mode in MigrateMe 4 turns off all non-core extensions to avoid issues during migration.
Final Steps: Once the test migration is successful, the live site can be updated with one click, making the new Joomla 4 site live.
