Upgrading to SilverStripe 4

API changes

The SilverStripe 4 compatible version of UserForms (5.x) introduces some breaking API changes:

  • Namespaces are added. Please use the SilverStripe upgrader to automatically update references in your code.
  • Previously deprecated code from UserForms 4.x has been removed:
    • EditableFormField::getSettings()
    • EditableFormField::setSettings()
    • EditableFormField::setSetting()
    • EditableFormField::getSetting()
    • EditableFormField::getFieldName()
    • EditableFormField::getSettingName()

The frontend JavaScript and SASS assets have been converted from Compass to Webpack, and now live in the client/ folder. Please see here for information on this build toolchain.

Data migration

UserForms 5.0 includes a legacy class name remapping configuration file (legacy.yml) as well as $table_name configuration for every DataObject to ensure that existing data in your database will remain unchanged. This should help to ensure that your upgrade process from UserForms 4.x on SilverStripe 3 is as seamless as possible.
