If an update is planned, please plan it with some buffer to be able to do some corrections that also come in some templates. For example some texts will be mandatory due to ada compliance issues.

Update from v3
If you want to update from v3 to v4 you need to prepare the project before the update.
Therefore you can use this feature.zip to extend existing templates.
Then global data labels need to be extended via another feature.zip.
Afterwards you need to execute the three scripts:
- CopyHeadlineToRTE
- CopyContactDataToRTE.
- CopyImageContent
Then you can update to v4.

Here is the v3 changelog. Old website guide.
