The Pavilion theme has been updated to version 2.0 with huge feature additions and improvements. It is now based on BurnEngine, which is our new base platform for developing OpenCart themes. We plan to release our next themes (the first one is Kiddos) based on this new platform. The most important benefit from this move is the shared codebase between all of the themes – they will receive bug fixes and feature additions at once. Every BurnEngine compatible theme will get regular updates, regardless of its initial release date, so your theme will have always the latest patches. Also, any compatible extension will work with an arbitrary BurnEngine theme without modifications. No more questions like ‘will xxx extension work with your next theme’. Together with the above mentioned advantages, you will get a bunch of new features when upgrading to BurnEngine/Pavilion2. We will list the most significant ones only, as under-the-hood improvements are countless. User features: - Improved layout system Technical features: - OpenCart 2.2.0.0 compatibility It is recommended to make a new OpenCart installation, but you are also able to upgrade your existing shop to Pavilion 2. Here are the upgrade steps: Please, have in mind that upgrade cannot fully transfer all your theme settings from Pavilion to BurnEngine. You may need to additionally fine tune some of your styles. Although you won’t loose any data, be sure you have a recent backup, before you go through the upgrade process. |

@bigmoon Sorry, but our previous answer is not fully correct. Pavilion 1 -> 2 does not make any DB changes to default OpenCart tables. The upgrade however renames the old tb_setting table to burnengine_setting. Be aware that some BurnEngine built-in extensions may add additional tables. BR, |
