What could happen installing the unsupported magento version 2.3?
How is not supported?
Hi @Eternal
Nothing critical will happen. Magento installation won't affect Plesk itself anyhow. Also before publishing articles, we first doing all the steps ourselves to make sure they work.
Though Magento itself is not part of Plesk and we warn customers that if the application does not work as a result or any of the steps above fails, they should troubleshoot and solve it themselves. Or get in touch with Magento support, for example.
Hi Alexey,
Just to let you know there are some missing images in the two "Parts"
Hi @Martin,
I have checked all screenshots from part 2 and they were opened fine.
Could you please specify which one didn't work for you?
