PR Code Suggestions ✨

Category	Suggestion	Impact
General	Add migration code examples Add specific code examples showing how to migrate from the old ->get() method to the new direct property access pattern to help developers update their code. migrations/54-60/removed-backward-incompatibility.md [174] - Description: The `Changelog` class was entirely depending on the `LegacyPropertyManagementTrait` and its `->get()` method. This is problematic because the `->get()` method circumvents the complete access protection in PHP and the trait itself is deprecated. In Joomla 6.0 the properties of the class have been mostly changed to public and can be accessed directly and the trait has been removed. +Example migration: +```php +// Old code +$value = $changelog->get('propertyName'); + +// New code +$value = $changelog->propertyName; +``` + [ ] Apply this suggestion Suggestion importance[1-10]: 8 __ Why: Adding concrete migration examples would significantly improve the documentation by making it clearer how developers should update their code from using the deprecated ->get() method to the new direct property access pattern.
