Update and php upgrade

Self-Hosted | v5
1

5.4.11 self hosted in a shared hosting environment
I would like to upgrade to
5.10.43
which requires an upgrade to php 8.

I’ve installed php8 and the 5.10 version on a new subdomain and have it running.
There does not appear a backup/restore feature on the 5.4 version.
What is the recommended method to migrate all data and settings over?

Thank you,
Chris

Hi,

We recommend using mysqldump to copy over the database, you’ll also want to copy over the .env file.

And those 2 items will make a full copy over of all settings, templates, etc yes?

Yes, that is correct
