I will upgrade migrate and recover your moodle lms with zero downtime


About this gig
Running an old Moodle version, or stuck mid-upgrade on a site that's now broken? That's what this service is for.
I'm Babar, a Moodle developer with 9 years of experience. I maintain live Moodle platforms for UK and UAE training organisations exam preparation, CPD, and accredited course delivery. Upgrades on those platforms happen while real students are enrolled, so downtime isn't an option.
How I work
- Full backup of your database and moodledata before anything is touched
- A staging copy of your site, built from that backup
- The upgrade runs on staging first themes, plugins and custom code all tested
- Only once staging is clean does anything go live
- A rollback plan, in case your host throws something unexpected
What I handle
- Minor and major version upgrades, including multi-version jumps
- Server, host and domain migrations
- Recovering sites broken by a failed upgrade
- Theme and plugin compatibility after an upgrade
- PHP and database version requirements
Most upgrade disasters come from skipping the staging step. I don't skip it.
Message me your current Moodle version and where you want to get to, and I'll tell you honestly whether it's straightforward or a real project.

FAQ
Will my site go down during the upgrade?
No. The upgrade runs on a staging copy first and is fully tested there. The live site only changes once I know the new version works with your theme, plugins and data.
My upgrade already failed and the site is broken. Can you fix it?
Yes, that's a common reason people contact me. Send me the error and your hosting access and I'll tell you what's recoverable before you order.
How far back can you upgrade from?
I've handled multi-version jumps from much older releases. Older versions need intermediate steps and often PHP and database upgrades too — that's the Premium package.
Will I lose my courses, users or grades?
No. Everything is backed up before any work starts, and I keep the backup until you've confirmed the site is working.
What do you need from me?
Hosting or cPanel access and Moodle admin access. If you're unsure how to share these safely, order anyway and I'll walk you through it.
Do you offer ongoing maintenance?
Yes. Monthly plans cover backups, version updates, security patches and priority support. Message me and I'll quote based on your platform size.
