If you are not comfortable with doing the upgrade yourself, we offer installation/upgrade services starting at $25.  Please feel free to contact us for this service.


2.1 Preparation for upgrade:

As a best practice, it is recommended that you make a backup of your PrestaShop store before you make any changes, just in case you need to restore it.

    A. Make a backup of all files in your PrestaShop store folder.

    B. Make a backup of the entire database for your PrestaShop store.

If you choose not backup your store files, you must at least backup the older version of the Agile Paypal Express module, which is located at "YourStoreRoot/modules/agilepaypal".

- Choose the "Modules-->Modules" option

- Find the "Agile Paypal Express" module

- Click "Delete" to delete the physical files from your PrestaShop folders.

Note:
If your PrestaShop version is 1.3x or lower, you will need to delete the physical files manually via an FTP tool or your site's control panel File manager.

 

2.3 Restore modified PrestaShop files.

This step is required only if your old Agile Paypal Express version is 1.1x or lower, otherwise, you can skip this step.

When you install Agile Paypal Express 1.1x or lower, you have made small changes to the following two files. You will need to find the lines you added when the older version was installed, and then remove them.

  - YourStoreRoot/authentication.php

  - YourStoreRoot/themes/YoueStoreTheme/authentication.tpl

There has been one line added to each of the above files. You will need to look at the readme.txt file from the old version of the Agile Paypal Express Checkout module to find the location of the line that was added.
