Deprecated function: Creation of dynamic property BotchaFormNone::$id is deprecated in BotchaFormNone->__construct() (line 214 of /home/kzn/domains/duntuk.com/public_html/sites/all/modules/contrib/botcha/controller/form/botcha.form.controller.inc).

Magento upgrade from 1.4, 1.5, 1.6, 1.7, or 1.8 to 1.9

NOTE: this upgrade process works the same way for Magento version 1.4, 1.5, 1.6, 1.7, 1.8, and 1.9

As many magento users will know, Magento is no fun to work with-- mainly due to poor community support (the developers help paying customers; i.e. Magento Enterprise ... Only payed support there... Great for business but bad for the average or beginning user...)

Anyhow...

So here's how we do it.

MAKE A BACKUP!

You can skip this step all together, however, please make a backup of everything prior to beginning the upgrade.

Create a test environment somewhere on your server (preferably away from your production installation)
