Back in January I asked for help in getting my 2.x aolution updated for 3.x: http://caspian.paravelsystems.com/pipermail/rivendell-dev/2020-January/028507.html I don't have time to give more helpful advice right now, hopefully someone else will be able to make it easy for you, if not, hopefully following that thread will give you what you need.
