Hello, I have a website for my agency with lots of pictures etc. but not shown right on tablets and mobiles. I'm thinking of buying the Professional 13 now and convert the website from 9 into the new 13. Is that possible and how to do it? And is the new Professional 13 working good on tablets and mobiles?

I am a personal fan of the 13. I do see a few things here and there they will fix but for the most part it *should* be fine. Although I was unable to save my previous site and directly upload to 13 because something was not linked right, No clue what it was but it worked out for the best. I ended up with a new design, and copy/pasted the site over 1 page at a time.

Hi Astrid, 

thank you for your message and for your interest in our program. I confirm that the version 13 allows to create responsive and mobile-friendly websites. You should not have any difficulties when importing a project done with version 9 into version 13. As the two versions are quite different there may logically be the need to modify some aspects of the project. 

Here you can find a detailed explanation about the conversion of old projects: https://helpcenter.websitex5.com/en/post/154023

I am avaiable for furtther information. Kind regards.

Hello Astrid,

For the tables not much has changed and internet is not a very friendly envirement for tables, so don't expect a lot there but in the use for mobiles there you can expect a big step forward.

If the conversion works smooth? Yes it should be BUT it's alos very depending on YOUR project, some have issues some none, it's hard to say.

Don't expect that you have no work in finetunning cause your skipping a lot of version and there are many changes so you need to check a lot and probabllly make some adjustments.

You could also choose for EVO I believe the update prize to pro from evo is the same as you would need to buy it directly. For the tables pictures and responsive part there is not much difference between them.

Goodluck with yourchoice, remember if you are not satisfied there is a 30 day Money Back Guarantee.

Thank you for all anwers. I now have tried to export the project from Evolution 9, but at 60 % the export stops. I tried now several times but it doesn't come further than the 60 %.  Is there another way to get my project in version 13. I have the incomedia map with all files on my computer.

if the export stops check if pictures that are in x5 are on your pc and can be reached (not been deleted or on a remote connection that can't be reached). Do you have empty objects, check for those as well. Any linkts to objects that are no more present in the project?

It is always good aspecially with a big project, to make a copy with export project regurly.

Else you need to fall back on a previous version that works.
