Umbraco Upgrade
As of September 30, 2023, Umbraco v7 has reached its End-of-Life, meaning it will no longer receive security patches or support. We strongly advise against hosting sites on this version.
Umbraco has transitioned to a modern framework built on .NET Core, which enhances modularity, speed, and reliability. Websites running on Umbraco v13 are not only faster but also more consistent, effectively eliminating issues like slow load times and memory leaks.
At DigitallyMedia, we manage over 100 Umbraco websites across various versions. Our team specializes in reviewing and enhancing existing solutions, providing ongoing maintenance, feature development, and seamless upgrades.
If you're using a lower version of Umbraco, we highly recommend upgrading to v13 to leverage these improvements. Let us help you ensure your site is secure, efficient, and prepared for the future.
Our study of Umbraco websites across the globe have shown that:-
are Umbraco v7
are Umbraco v8
are Umbraco v11
are Umbraco v13
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Can we upgrade straight from 7 to 13?
It’s not possible to jump directly as there are a lot of changes required when moving from Umbraco 7 to Umbraco 13.
Upgrading your Umbraco 7 website requires the correct strategy and guidance. It requires a process to be followed to move to .NET Core and get your Umbraco site to version 9 and this is where developer support can be beneficial to ensure Umbraco migrations and upgrades are as seamless and stress-free as possible.
-
How is content treated in Umbraco 11?
The data structures, such as how nested content is treated, are different in Umbraco 11. In the Umbraco 8 release cycle, Umbraco created the Block List, which is an updated data type to the nested content that allows editors a better experience when modifying the nested elements.
Umbraco 11 has introduced The Block Grid data type which combines the Block List from Umbraco 8 with the grid, so editors can visualize the look and feel of the page, while also allowing complex blocks to be placed anywhere in the grid.
