Will PageBuilder Upgrade/migration From V.3 To V.5 Be Seamless?
AverageJoe
Hi There,
First, I want to say thank you so much for developing PageBuilder v.5 and listening to the needs of your clients. I have enjoyed testing the Beta versions and the RC's.
I can't seem to find the answer in the documention, so I figured I'd ask it here: will the upgrade from PageBuilder v.3 to v.5 be seamless? I have a ton of sites using v.3 still, as I was never comfortable with frontend-only editing in v.4. But I also see support for v.3 is ending in August, so I want to make sure I have everything ready to begin the migration process as soon as v.5 is stable and I can test it out.
Thanks again for all your hard work on this project!

Yes, our team trying to keep the upgrade from PageBuilder v.3 to v.5 be seamless.
You can try and check this in your test environment. Probably on your localhost with a full site backup?

Accepted AnswerHi AverageJoe,
have also a look at my reports regarding the layout.
They have removed the outer container definition for 1380px.
Which leads to layout shifts and 25555#qa-answer-120411.
Or buttons getting smaller, missing uppercase for titles and so on, when upgrading from 3.x to 5.
I had reported these issues for the last 3 RC-Releases.
I hope the final release on 05.07.2023 fixes the issues.
If you still face the issue with the container, you can use this workaround.
/* workaround for SPPB5 */
@media (min-width: 1380px) {
.sppb-row-container {
max-width:1320px
}
}If the other problems still exists, there is no other way then changing them by hand.
Or create a ticket and let the support do the work.
Alway test on a staging page before upgrading the live-version to a new release and do not forget to make a backup.
Have a nice day.
