Before you upgrade 

We took immense care while creating 1.6.0 and tested upgrade procedures with different variations, but sellacious is used in so many different ways by our awesome users and customized so widely that we always recommend you to take backup of your website before upgrading to latest version. It is always recommended to run the upgrade in the staging environment and not to upgrade it on your live website. 

 

Steps of up-gradation: 

Login in your Joomla Administrator panel, and go to Extensions > Manage > Update you will find upgrades listed in the available updates. Upgrade Sellacious package, and Template.

The second level authentication

Sellacious has embedded second level authentication, this way you give direct access of your shop administrator without letting them inside your Joomla Administrator panel. You can also configure the URL of this sellacious backend by simply changing the folder name of sellacious back-office, by default it is “/sellacious” like https://www.yourwebsite.com/sellacious

 

The default user which will log in inside the sellacious back-office is the super admin of Joomla. 

License: This is also one of the major features of sellacious. In this version licensing method in sellacious is improved and made the licensing process more easy for the users. One license can only be assigned to the one live site and also one email only. You can also directly upgrade your license from the sellacious backend.
