If you enable Genoa compatibility plugin most Genoa plugins should work fine in Siena. I suspect most plugins will not be converted at all, since that can be quite a bit of work and most plugin authors dont have time to fix their old plugins for Siena. Siena should be used for new sites, it's not just for testing. Migrating from Genoa is a bit of work, but that's true for any major upgrade. |

Well, You'd think that it would work, but as example I will use the minichat plugin: Fatal error: Cannot redeclare minichat_build() (previously declared in F:\xampp\htdocs\test\sienna\plugins\minichat\inc\minichat.functions.php:25) in F:\xampp\htdocs\test\sienna\plugins\minichat\inc\minichat.functions.php on line 154
AS I am no php programmer, I have no clue how to solve these kinds of errors. Can these kinds of error be fixt with a work around, or should I just let the old plugins be the old plugins?
I understand why the plugin authors don't feel the need to upgrade all their stuff, but isn't that a bad thing for Cotonti itself? I mean, you now have two branches, genoa and sienna. Genoa has a big load of plugins, but Sienna only has (atm) 3 or 4. You all have worked hard to get genoa to sienna and now you basically are telling me not to upgrade to sienna, coz it's meant for new sites.. Does this mean the Genoa branch keeps exsisting next to Sienna, or will it eventually be faded out? |
