Hi,
The latest version is always better, but I have a theme works only on opencart version 1.5.6.1. Is it safe to use opencart 1.5.6.x in 2017 since I saw the newer version of opencart has only improvement in design/responsive...etc Do you think opencart 1.5.6.x has dangerous bugs that open my site to hackers? please help me, I'm confused. thanks in advance!

Short answer, yes, it is pretty much safe.

I would suggest testing v1.5.6.4 as that was a very good release and it fixed a lot of the bugs with 1.5.6 and 1.5.6.1
This was a very solid release in my opinion and we know a lot of site owners still using this version.

As said above, v1.5.6.4 is the better choice.
However, be aware that v1.5.6.x code is not fully compatible with PHP 7+, so you should stick with at least PHP 5.4 or PHP 5.6 for better results.

That's a good point about php7 and I haven't really seen 2.x supporting php7 either.villagedefrance wrote: ↑Mon Jul 17, 2017 6:06 pmAs said above, v1.5.6.4 is the better choice.
