    Hello friends,
    Presently my website http://www.offclassroom.com has Joomla 1.5.22 version.
    Now is it ideal for me to move & upgrade to a stable 1.6 version? Or there are chances that some conflicts may arise because of the version update?
    Your views & experiences are welcome.
    Thank You.

    Hi Vanditneel,

    I have not made the move to 1.6, just as a matter of preference. But even if you want to, I don't think there is an inbuilt way to update from 1.5 to 1.6 for reasons which require someone smarter than me to explain!

    Take a look at this link for a bit more info: http://forum.joomla.org/viewtopic.php?p=2492916

    If you sites are being hacked, it is less likely to be due to 1.5 intrinsically, but perhaps some of the plugins your are using have a vulnerability? worth searching on that subject in the forum link above too, as it may save some time in the long run....

    Hope that helps.
