Re: Can I install extension from older version magento on new version?

@jan_zaczynski  With my experience a simple answer is you must not. It is doable but you must not do it unless you are sure that those extension / module are compatible with the latest version of Magento.

 

There are various changes/updates in recent version of Magento that is from M2.0.x, M2.1.x,  M2.2.x and M2.3.0 and module / extension may not be compatible with the different version.

 

My recommendation would be to confirm it from the Extension provider first and then proceed.
