marlonae Posted June 5, 2021 Share Posted June 5, 2021 Is there a way I can downgrade the site version? Link to comment
creedon Posted June 5, 2021 Share Posted June 5, 2021 @marlonae No there is not. You can start a new v7.0 site if you want. paul2009 and unitof 2 Find my contributions useful? Please like, upvote, mark my answer as best , and see my profile. Thanks for your support! Link to comment
bulldoguk Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 Is this still true? I'm specifically trying to create a site where I can develop my own templates, but I don't see a way to create a v7.0 site unitof 1 Link to comment
creedon Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 @bulldoguk Two ways to create a v7.0 site. Starting from one of SS's templates. Starting from a Base template.

unitof Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 Are there any plans to bring Local Development Server support to 7.1? Or is it being discontinued? Link to comment
netter Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 Any update on this? Still no developer mode on 7.1. So sad... Maybe switching to Wordpress. Link to comment
creedon Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 I don't speak for SS, I don't work for them. I think it's pretty clear that Developer Mode is not going to happen on v7.1. You can of course always hope and request the feature by contacting Customer Support. My perspective is that SS won't do it as it creates a level of support and customer dissatisfaction they are unwilling to deal with. Yes they can put all the caveats they want up front but you know what happens. A customer is handed a site that has developer mode enabled by a consultant. The consultant disappears. The customer has problems and contacts SS and is told to go away because of DM/custom code. The customer is unhappy, feels bad about SS and is frustrated that they have to find another consultant or they just give up and move onto another service. The other factor is probably the number of users of DM are too few to justify the investment in making the feature happen. Find my contributions useful?
