Hello, the version 7 license is not linked here on Answers and it was not linked in the previous my.websitex5.com too. You cannot see the license here, but you are a registered customer the same. Please feel free to ask me any info about your version 7 license.
As we did for all the version of WebSite X5 that we released, we just allow the conversion from the previous version even becuase there are too many differences from v7 and v9.
As we suggested to other customers, you can send your IWP files from version 7 to us (as a ZIP file), so we can save it using version 8. By this way you could open it using version 9 and continue working.
We also sent a newsletter to all version 7 customers for a special promo for them.
Let me know if you need further info
I have the same problem. I have just bought version 9 and cannot import my previous website. How do I send this file to you. I a not technically minded.

Hello Mary,
just send us your Evolution 7 project as an .iwp file. We will open with Evolution 8 and send it back to you. Then you will able to open the project with Evolution 9.
The address you have to send it is: file@answers.websitex5.com
Please add your name+the post number in the email object.
kind regards,
Lisa
Thanks Lisa I'll have a go!
