Hi, I've got an old site that was sort of set up as a prototype and I made plenty of mistakes on it. It is a 2.0.4 site from a Debian distribution and I've got a new 2.5 vanilla site set up. Earlier attempts to migrate (to 2.1.x) failed and I gave up.
But, I am happy to just export from the old and import into the new for the content and recreate the user database by hand. Forgive me if this is documented clearly somewhere but I ran into trouble as follows. I imported folders okay but the little icons did not show up and clearly the new site did not understand the content. After fooling around a bit I finally clicked on "archetype_tool". I noticed that the new site had most of the ATContentTypes listed as uninstalled and the old had them as installed. So by clicking on Install for ATFolder and ATDocument, the old content that I had imported was recognised. This was good. Sorry for the long lead-in. I can now ask my questions: 1.) Was my confusion caused because the default configuration of atcontent types changed quite a bit since the old 0.2.0-rc3 version? 2.) Did I do the correct thing to get this stuff in? 3.) What is the intention in the new 2.5 vanilla install with having atcontenttypes set up with many types un-installed? 4.) Am I asking this in the right place? thanks! Stuart PS.
