Magmodules Extension Compatibility

Our extensions support the following minimum Magento versions:

Extension Type	Minimum Version

Existing extensions	2.4.4+ (updated)
Legacy support	Contact us

We actively test against all supported Magento versions (2.4.6, 2.4.7) and recommend staying on the latest patch release.

Checking Your Magento Version

Via Admin Panel

Go to the admin footer - the version is displayed at the bottom right.

Via CLI

bin/magento --version

Via Composer

composer show magento/product-community-edition
# or for Commerce
composer show magento/product-enterprise-edition

Via Files

Check composer.json in your Magento root:

grep "magento/product" composer.json

When to Upgrade

Must Upgrade

Running an EOL version (no security patches)
Security vulnerabilities announced for your version
Required for extension compatibility
PCI compliance requirements

Should Upgrade

Missing features available in newer versions
Performance improvements in newer releases
Bug fixes affecting your store
Before your version reaches EOL

Plan Carefully

Major version upgrades (2.3 → 2.4) require significant testing
Minor upgrades (2.4.6 → 2.4.7) are usually smoother
Patch upgrades (2.4.7 → 2.4.7-p1) are low risk

Upgrade Process Overview

1. Prepare

Back up database and files
Document all customizations
List all installed extensions
Review changelog for breaking changes

2. Test Environment

Create staging environment with current version
Upgrade staging first
Test all functionality thoroughly
Verify all extensions work

3. Upgrade Commands

# Enable maintenance mode
bin/magento maintenance:enable

# Update Magento version
composer require magento/product-community-edition=2.4.7 --no-update
composer update

# Run upgrade
bin/magento setup:upgrade
bin/magento setup:di:compile
bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy -f

# Clear cache and disable maintenance
bin/magento cache:flush
bin/magento maintenance:disable

4. Post-Upgrade

Verify admin access
Test frontend functionality
Check all payment methods
Verify order processing
Test all third-party integrations

Common Upgrade Issues

Extension Conflicts

Some extensions may not support the new version. Options:

Update the extension first
Contact the extension vendor
Temporarily disable the extension
Find an alternative extension

Database Schema Changes

If you see database errors:

bin/magento setup:upgrade --keep-generated
bin/magento setup:db-schema:upgrade
bin/magento setup:db-data:upgrade

Dependency Conflicts

Composer conflicts with package versions:

composer why-not magento/product-community-edition 2.4.7

This shows which packages block the upgrade.

Magento Open Source vs Adobe Commerce

Feature	Open Source	Commerce
Price	Free	Licensed
Support	Community	Adobe
B2B Features	No	Yes
Page Builder	Basic	Advanced
Cloud Option	No	Yes

Our extensions work with both Open Source and Commerce editions.

Version Numbering

Magento uses semantic versioning:

2.4.7-p1
│ │ │ └── Patch number (security/hotfix)  
│ │ └──── Minor version (features)  
│ └────── Major version (breaking changes)  
└──────── Platform version

Patch releases (p1, p2): Security fixes only, safe to apply
Minor releases (2.4.6 → 2.4.7): New features, some testing needed
Major releases (2.3 → 2.4): Significant changes, full testing required
