migrate images from file manager with description to new instance
PermalinkI have an 5 year old concrete5 site with a lot of files and just created an new installation with the current concrete5 version.
Now I have to migrate a lot of pictures with correct description to this new site. I thin this will take hours if I have to upload every single image again and then edit the description.
So I am searching for a way to do this with a script or something else...c
Maybe someone can help?
# mass file / picture upload with description
old version: 5.7.5.13
new version 8.2.1
Old versoon
I have C5 v 5.7.5.13
Documentation:
"The legacy version exports content from a concrete5 5.6 site, and the 5.7 migration tool handles export from and import to a 5.7 site."
So I download NOT the legacy version. But hen I try to install (Migration Tool v.0.9.0):
"This package requires concrete5 version 8.3.1 or greater."
"""Awaiting Installation
Unknown Package v.0.0
Broken package (handle migration_tool).
Can't install"""
So on v8 website, you will use the NOT legacy one which is only for 8.3.1 and up, the same one you already downloaded from here:https://github.com/concrete5/addon_migration_tool...
And for your 5.7 website you need to grab version 0.5.4 of the tool from the release tab on the same page as the other one. The download link ishttps://github.com/concrete5/addon_migration_tool/archive/0.5.4.zip...
There's a migration tool for that. Read this article
