4.0 themes will be compatible with 4.1?

Hi guys,

I'm about to upgrade my board from 3.4 finally to 4.x. I decided to re-build my theme "from zero".

But I tried with 4.1 beta builds - seems it's still working unstable with 4.0 custom applications, which are essential for me.

If I will decided to go with 4.0 now and build new Theme for 4.0 - this theme will be easy to upgrade to 4.1 in future? Or I will have to re-build it once again almost from zero when I will upgrade from 4.0 to 4.1?

Please! I have no more time to chill, need to take decision now...

Thanks!

There are pretty substantial code changes required between 4.0 and 4.1.

You can use the "IPS4 Resources > Theme Differences" tool to check them out. :)

Hello,

There are some templates that need to be changed/adjusted when upgrading from 4.0 to 4.1, mostly for the navbar changing.

The theme, if selected, will not work and will show an error on the frontend when used without correction.

If it is mostly css based, yes.

From what I have read, it will have to be upgraded/modified once you go to 4.1 if it is much more than simple CSS edits (if it involves template changes).
