| The top portion of the Pre-Update Check shows if your current server environment is compatible with Joomla 4.x for both the required PHP and Database Settings. The data on the [https://downloads.joomla.org/technical-requirements Technical Requirements] page will be updated to show Joomla 4.x specs when we are closer to GA.

| Your site may look different than the screen capture above. What's important is to check if anything is red and not compatible with Joomla 4.x. If it isn't, you'll need to talk to your host or change hosts before migrating to Joomla 4.x. During a migration is a great time to change hosts. See the [[Why Migrate|Migration Funnel]] for more information on planning and step-by-step instructions (docs from 3.10.x to 4.x aren't ready yet. Use the 2.5 to 3.x funnel as a guide.)

| == Extensions Pre-Update Check ==
| |
| | |
| The extension portion of the Pre-Update Check component pulls Joomla core extensions and third-party extensions that use update server. You may have more extensions installed than appear on the list. Extensions that don't use the update server do not appear on the list.
| |
| | |
| The list is broken into sections based on the targetplatform tag the extensions are or are not using. For devs, see [[Deploying an Update Server]] for more information about these tags and how to deploy an Update Server. For more information about what the Joomla Update System is, see https://extensions.joomla.org/support/knowledgebase/submission-requirements/joomla-update-system-requirement/ and

| The Notes section at the bottom of the list shows the different tags and what they mean.
