Tuto PrestaShop: Best Practices for PrestaShop Store Updates.

Learn to master your PrestaShop store updates through expert-recommended best practices. This comprehensive tutorial guides you step by step to transform updating — often perceived as complex — into a smooth, reliable, and painless process, whether you're a merchant or an agency.

Discover the essential foundations: working on a clean environment with appropriate server prerequisites (PHP, MySQL), checking your installed modules and their sources, and developing in an "upgrade-friendly" way with Safe Customization. Master sustainable development principles by using hooks, dedicated modules, Symfony services, and Twig templates while avoiding dangerous overrides and modifications. Learn to choose and maintain a compatible theme to ensure your store's stability.

Explore best practices for organization and documentation: keep your customizations, modules, and modified files up to date, manage your access and environments in a structured way, and use version control with Git for a reliable history.

Strengthen your security and daily maintenance through tested and reliable backups, regular database cleaning, proactive error and log monitoring, and constant performance monitoring to avoid critical slowdowns.

Master your module management by systematically checking their compatibility before installation, performing progressive updates, and removing obsolete modules. Discover the complete update process: planning with clear versioning, systematic testing on staging environment, using the official PS Assistant module, and mandatory validation before any production modification.

A practical and professional approach to ensure simple, fast, and painless updates, and maintain your PrestaShop store performing and secure in 2025 and beyond.
