How to update Joomla 1.5 to Joomla 2.5
Updating Joomla is not simple, you should be very careful to keep the previous look and data from being lost. Actually it is not upgrading rather than moving to 2.5 as there is no path and relation between these two versions. The process is very long. So please visit this Joomla page: https://docs.joomla.org/Migrating_from_Joomla_1.5_to_Joomla_2.5
How to update Joomla 1.5 to Joomla 2.5
Hello
1. Update your Joomla 1.5
2. Update all extensions for your Joomla, check their official pages to ensure they are updated to the latest version.
3. Make backup of all your data, you can use http://www.xcloner.com/
4. Upgrade your Joomla with jUpgrade. It is a Joomla extension which makes your upgrade very easy, it is advised to use this extension especially if you have some work in progress: http://extensions.joomla.org/search?q=jupgrade
Cheers.
