This articles provides a list with best practices for upgrading Sitefinity.
During the upgrade process, Sitefinity CMS Project Manager or NuGet replace the assembly files in your /bin folder with the ones corresponding to the newer Sitefinity CMS version. After assemblies are modified, Sitefinity’s upgrade scripts execute for the first time once you start your application. As a result, the upgrade scripts upgrade the database.
The best practices provide directions for simplifying and validation the upgrade process. We recommend that you perform the steps outlined in the Upgrading Sitefinity CMS - Best Practices whitepaper.
Below is a summary of some of the steps described in the whitepaper. For a full list of the recommended steps and detailed guidance, please refer to the linked whitepaper document above.
