Who it's for

When the scanner says rewrite, not patch.

Built for people who already have a Migration Scanner report — or know which extensions block Joomla 5 or 6.

  • Site owners whose Migration Scanner report lists third-party extensions that block a move to Joomla 5 or 6.
  • Extension developers who want a paid rewrite partner so their component, module or plugin ships for Joomla 6 without living on the compatibility plugin.
  • Agencies that need abandoned or custom extensions rebuilt on staging as part of a client upgrade. Pair this with our Joomla upgrade services when the whole site is moving.

How it works

From scanner report to a live upgrade.

Five steps. Nothing touches your live site until you approve the staging build.

  1. 01

    Send the scanner report

    Upload or paste the JSON from JoomlaX Migration Scanner (com_jxmscanner), attach the extension zip if you have it, plus the extension name(s) and your target Joomla version.

  2. 02

    Get a fixed quote

    We review the flagged files, lines and replacements — including what still needs the compatibility plugin and what will not run on Joomla 6 — and send a fixed written quote within 12 hours.

  3. 03

    Rewrite on staging

    Infyways rewrites or upgrades the extension on a staging copy. Nothing touches production until you approve.

  4. 04

    You test

    You exercise the admin and front-end paths that matter. We fix anything that fails before cutover.

  5. 05

    Go live

    Deploy the upgraded package, verify install and updates, and hand over the changes with clear notes.

What's covered

What the rewrite includes.

The work we quote from your scanner findings — so the extension runs on the target Joomla version without leaning on temporary bridges.

  • Legacy API replacement

    Swap removed and deprecated Joomla APIs for supported equivalents so the extension runs without the old shims.

  • Namespacing and manifests

    Modern namespaces, service providers and manifest updates so install, update and discovery work on Joomla 5 and 6.

  • Drop the compat plugin

    Remove reliance on plg_behaviour_compat6 where the scanner still flags it, so you are not stuck on a temporary bridge.

  • jQuery to native JS

    Replace fragile jQuery admin and front-end scripts with native JavaScript that matches current Joomla UI patterns.

  • PHP 8.1+ fixes

    Clear fatals and warnings that surface under PHP 8.1+ (and 8.3+ for Joomla 6) before they hit production.

  • Settings and data kept

    Preserve configuration, database tables and user content wherever the extension design allows a clean upgrade path.

Straight answers about the paid rewrite path linked from Migration Scanner.

Need the whole site moved too? See Joomla upgrade services.

01What is this page for?
It is the paid rewrite destination for JoomlaX Migration Scanner (com_jxmscanner). When the free scanner lists files, lines and replacements — including what still needs plg_behaviour_compat6 and what will not run on Joomla 6 — you land here to have Infyways rewrite or upgrade those extensions.
02Do I need a Migration Scanner report?
It helps a lot, but it is optional. You can still request a quote with the extension name(s), current Joomla version and target. If you have the JSON export, upload or paste it so we can quote from the exact findings.
03Where do I get the free scanner?
JoomlaX Migration Scanner is documented at joomlax.com/documentation/migration-scanner. It runs on Joomla 4.4, 5 and 6 and analyses third-party PHP and XML in place.
04How fast will I get a quote?
We reply within 12 hours with a fixed written quote. Complex multi-extension packages may need a short follow-up question before the price is locked.
05Will you work on staging?
Yes. Rewrites happen on staging. Your live site stays online until you test and approve the upgraded package.
06Can you upgrade several extensions at once?
Yes. List every extension in the form. We quote each package (or a bundle) so scope stays clear before work starts.
07Is this the same as a full site Joomla upgrade?
No. This service focuses on the extensions the scanner flagged. If you also need the CMS core moved to Joomla 5 or 6, use our Joomla upgrade services — we often run both together.
