8.2.1 to 8.5.2 - deletes Calendar data and blocks?

Permalink
Hello!

Just did an update from concrete 8.2.1 to 8.5.2 - my calendar add-on was working fine but now all my events and the blocks on each page are gone? I realized the calendar has been added to native concrete now but where are my events, is there a way to recover? Any help or ideas would be great. Thank you.

Just in case anybody else finds this post, after you upgrade beyond 8.3 concrete5 automatically uninstalls the Calendar package (as it's no longer compatible) and backs up all of the events, you have to go to /index.php/dashboard/system/calendar/import and re-import those events.

Unfortunately it does not re-import any previously created Topic selections so if you were using topics before the update your calendar is mostly broken unless you manually fix all of the topic associations.

It would be really nice if this information lived in the Calendar Add-On page, but I guess the core team has decided that it's not important to readily provide it to users.
