Hi,
Sure. A new version compatible with the V9 will be released. Re the timeline, I cannot come with an exact date at the moment.

I am happy to hear you will be coming out with an updated version of the Pixel theme for V9 of Concrete5. Do you have a rough estimate for when this may be? There are some security updates our programmer has worked on, and we wouldn't be able to move them live without an updated theme that will work with V9. So, I would just like to be able to provide him with a rough estimate of time.

Hi Erin,
Unfortunately, giving an exact time at this point is not possible. We should wait for the first stable version and also its documentation before going any further.
Cheers,

Hello Shahroq,
Sorry to keep bugging you, but are you able to provide an estimate for when the theme version for V9 will be finished at this time? Also curious if your Responsive Tables add-on will be getting an update (if necessary, of course).
Thanks a lot!

Hello,

I also have a new customer who is quite interested in this theme. Just checking to see if you have any guestimate as to when it might be version 9 ready.

thanks!

Please be aware that Concrete CMS version 8 will be EOL on 31 Dec 2022. We encourage you to plan to upgrade to Concrete version 9 before then. You are going to love the new features that come with version 9!

For those who are asking about the new V9 compatible version, it is under development, and most likely will be released in the second quarter of this year.

It's June 2023 and still no support for Concrete v9. My hosting company is charging me a lot of money for PHP 7.4 so I need this sorted ASAP. Can you give me an update when this is going to be available?

Hi,
We are working on the upgrade, but I cannot announce any specific release date at this moment. Most of the sections have already been done, yet there are places that need to be improved and redesigned.
Thank you for your patience.
Cheers,

Hello
I am also eagerly awaiting the update for a customer. The main problem in its installation are the bad loading times of the old C5 with pixel theme, which disappear with the update to version 9.
My customer would like to know if the pixel upgrade is more likely to happen in "weeks" or "months".

If it takes months, we would rather do the upgrade ourselves.

I would be very happy about feedback, which I can pass on to my customers!

Hey Sharoq –

It's such a great theme and I would happily pay for a new v9 compatible version. I can't speak for anybody else but would it help if you knew there was new revenue in finishing the update?

Hi Mark,

I really appreciate you waiting for the new update. I am aware of the fact that I promised the second quarter of this year. However, it is not done yet. At some point, I decided to rewrite most of the underlying code for the sake of more flexibility and it took way more than I expected.

What I can tell you is that more than 85% of the job is finished and it will definitely be out. Yet announcing another release date is hard, as my work schedule is in flux and Indeterminate. A rough guess is in the next 1-2 months.

Apologies for the delay. I hope it would be worth this much waiting.

Hi shahroq,

thanks for the updated information.

One to two months more waiting time as a rough estimate with a lot of uncertainty is of course not what my customer was hoping for.

So my question to you would be whether it is conceivable that you hand over the previous 85% revised code and we do the last 15% for our customers?

This proposal is purely practical and we don't want any rights, licenses or money or anything for it. All we care about is that we bring our customer's system up to date.

Kind regards

Arndt

Thanks for getting back to me Sharoq. I know this stuff is hard and I appreciate you taking the time to get it right.

I hope the upgrade path is easy for the people that use the theme, and like I said I'm personally happy to pay for Pixel 3.
