LightSpeed 3.0 Upgrade Process.

LightSpeed 3.0 Upgrade Process

LightSpeed 3.0 is a whole new software product. It includes a new database, new framework, new code structure and new features.

In order to upgrade your LightSpeed web store to LightSpeed eCommerce 3.0, we will need a minimum of 2 weeks. 

Please read the notes below:

1.We do not develop on your live site. We make a copy of your entire site in a sub-folder and do the upgrade to the copy. All customizations must be rebuilt and tested. So if Argoworks wrote custom scripts that allowed LightSpeed to do certain things 'outside the box', we will need to rewrite those scripts.

Once the site has been upgraded, we work with you to do a brand new update from your LightSpeed Point of Sale to the new 3.0 store. This pushes all the products and web categories back to the new LightSpeed 3.0 web store. 

Your older live site is not modified at all and customers can still shop and place orders, while we are working on the new 3.0 site.

Important: Try to minimize updates to WordPress with new page content, images or blog posts during the upgrade process. This data may be lost during the upgrade process when we make the new 3.0 site live.

2. Once your products have been updated, you will need to fill out your ADMIN PANEL once again. This includes setting up your payment and shipping methods.

3. When we have both (Argoworks Creative and you) confirmed that the site is ready to go live and tested it, we remove your old site and replace it with your new one. This is typically done outside of normal business hours to ensure that the migration from the old site to new LightSpeed eCommerce 3.0 site is seamless and does not interrupt sales.
