Re: Recommendations regarding current opencart system OC 3.0.3.8
Does opencart 3.0.1.4 support event based system like OC4. Because discussions with site owner revealed that they don't want to do any major expense on site after this exercise so we need to plan for coming 2-3 years. So, will I be able to migrate written code to OC4 if need be? Or I won't need that?
