    Importing content from other CMS

    Hi,

    I have an import process that is taking content from a legacy ColdFusion CMS and creating nodes in Umbraco. The import process has worked fairly well (with the added complexity of updating links and paths to media items etc.) However, I have an issue where the pages don't seem to properly publish. They appear to be published in the tree and when viewing the Generic Properties, but there is no link to the page and I can't see it when viewing it from the "front-end".

    Here's what I have tried:

    - Republish Entire site - didn't do anyting to the state of the pages
    - Publish (including children) from the root node - no affect here either.

    If I save/publish individual pages everything seems to work. The problem is we're talking about 3000+ nodes so doing this manually would be quite the effort. Anyone seen this before or have any sugestions?

    Thanks much.

    -- Nik

    Hi Nik,

     

    One question, how did you publish it, did you also use the UpdateDocumentCache Method call? Small example that I use for publishing using the API .doc is the Document object. 

     
    //Publish the document under Admin account
    doc.Publish(
    new User(0));
     
    library.UpdateDocumentCache(doc.Id);

    Hope this helps you,

    Richard

    Hmmm...that is probably the culprit. Thanks for chiming in Richard.

    Thanks,
    Nik
