GMapFP Pro for Joomla 3 is a very powerful component with a lot of options.

This version for Joomla 3 has followed the various evolutions of Joomla since the beginning of version 2.5.

On several points in advance, it had its own management of customs fields, it was multi-categories, had its own photo gallery, ...

For Joomla 4, we have chosen to completely rewrite GMapFP by making it fully compatible with all the different basic options of Joomla, and to give even more possibilities to our users.

The biggest feature that has not followed is the multi-categories. Therefore, we cannot guarantee a perfect migration!

You will probably have to resume your menu items pointing to GMapFP.

For the photo galleries, we have taken the option of being able to leave our users the one that suits them best through a custom field.

On the other hand, for the migration, we had to make a choice, so we chose to use the custom field ACFGallery.

If you have this plugin installed on your Joomla 4, the migration of the galleries will be ensured, otherwise they will not be recovered. But your photos will not be lost.

So to migrate from GMapFP Pro for Joomla 3 to the Joomla 4 version, you must:

• Make a backup of your site
• Update GMapFP to the latest version for Joomla 3 (if not already).
• Migrating your site to Joomla 4
• Install the ACFGallery plugin (if you want to automatically recover your photo galleries)
• Install GMapFP Pro package for Joomla 4
• Open GMapFP settings to configure your component with its new options
• Check all your files and resume them if you used multi-categories
• Check and resume if necessary all your menu items.
