Business Impact
Praxis Dr. med. Dirk Schirok is a psychotherapy practice in Duisburg, North Rhine-Westphalia, offering behavioural therapy, schema therapy, and mindfulness-based psychotherapy. Its website runs on REDAXO CMS. We applied the latest core update in a controlled way — tested locally, backed up, and verified after go-live — so the practice website stayed online and up to date.
REDAXO core running on version 5.21.2
Full file and database backup kept for instant rollback
Page speed, navigation, forms, redirects, links, and media verified
Responsive view checked on mobile and tablet, plus cross-browser tests
Admin login, article editing, media manager, templates, and add-ons verified
Clear report of pre-existing issues and 11 add-on updates to plan next
Key takeaway: even a minor REDAXO update needs a backup, a local test run, and a documented checklist. It separates update risks from older issues — such as a favicon problem and an MForm editing error — so nothing is blamed on the wrong change.
