Upgrading to Silverstripe CMS 4

This is a legacy module for Silverstripe CMS 3.

File versioning is built-in with Silverstripe CMS 4. There is currently no migration path from this module. Current file versions are handled by Silverstripe CMS’s built-in upgrade tooling. Both past file metadata versions (in FileVersion table) and content versions (in assets/_versions) are retained, but they’re no longer accessible via the CMS UI. If required, those versions can be retrieved by a developer.

Read the Keeping archived assets documentation article to configure your Silverstripe CMS 4 project to preserved archived files.

Requirements
