Our website is currently using X-cart version 4.4. We want to upgragde to version 5.0. The coding standard, file structures, and database tables are completely different. So we have to migrate X-cart 4.4 database into X-cart 5, then make new skins according to X-cart 5 standard and all modules installation as well as customization.

How do we upgrade without loosing the existing database?

  • I've improved the grammar and spelling of the post. However, it's still not 100% clear what question you're actually asking. I've attempted to pull the question from your title and embed it in the post, please confirm that my assumption was correct. – FreeMan May 08 '15 at 13:12
  • Maybe just focus to `xcart_customers` table, usually you do not need anything else. Once I just merged orders counter for each user into new database, but really you do not need anything else. – skobaljic May 28 '15 at 15:07
