Thanks for the roundup!

With “Installation: Easier install process” does it also mean easier migration from 7 to 8 ?

Hi @holdusback!

These changes mentioned on the roadmap are just for the regular install process both through the UI an the cli.

On the UI we are adding a new requirements pre-check page, that is going to do some more checks and warn users of missing configurations/dependencies before they install. Among other things checking if the app and the graphql api are accessible, to try to avoid the issues people are having when they are missing mod_rewrite.

The cli will also have part of those pre-checks.

Is there any update for Joomla portal using Joomla 5 now? Joomla 5 is very fast, stable, secure and easy fast to set up.

hmm I see there is only Wordpress addon but the Joomla portal is very very old for Joomla 3 and now Joomla 5 is long time released… Comparision Joomla and Wordpress there is still a lot more pro users for Joomla I guess? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cfFTp9vlhws

Forum users are talking about how to upgrade portal to joomla 5 compatibility:

SuiteCRM 8.6 is out? :thinking:
