Backward Compatibility

When running obsolete version of PrestaShop you might experience compatibility issues and error like this: CloudCache – In order to use the module you need to install the backward compatibility. This means you need “legacy” bypass between versions. Basically, backward compatibility is feature that will allows you to run newer addons on old versions of PrestaShop without making platform obsolete. In order to enable this feature you need to download install it from http://addons.prestashop.com/en/modules-prestashop/6222-backwardcompatibility.html Other option, if that is an option for you, is to upgrade version of PrestaShop and reinstall your plugins/addons.
