Thnx Ron for the clarification.
In my situation the old install didn't have too many LO's present so the easiest and fastest way was to export and import LO's

Upgrading is the best option for most organisations. Exporting and importing into a new install isn't practical or necessary for organisational installations with lots of existing LO's. Just follow the upgrade instructions and obviously back-up first then test before restoring access to everyone.

As Julian says very few issues with existing projects especially if already version 2.1.

Yes, LO's made in XoT 2.x are 1 on 1 compatible with LO's in XoT 3.0
You just need to export the LO's as zip and import the zips in XoT 3.0

I have used this on a new server. The old server had XoT 2.0 installed. The new server has XoT 3.0 installed.

However, I have not tested an udate from XoT 2.x to XoT 3.0 on the same server. Maybe Tom can respond on that?

Hi

Before I ask our IT folks to upgrade XOT to version 3, can I be reassured there is backwards compatibility? i.e. Will LOs we made in version 2 still be editable and usable in version 3?

AIso, is there anything in particular we need to be careful of when upgrading?

Thanks
Oli
