upgrading from umbraco 6.1.6 to umbraco 7.4 legacy Multi Note pickers
Hi,
As we understand uComponents legacy items are no longer supported in Umbraco 7 and a lot of the functionality has been moved to the core of Umbraco. Our umbraco implementation made extensive use of the uComponents Multi-Node Tree Picker, Multi-URL Picker and Auto Complete. We could use some advice in this transition. What is the best way to make the transition? Theoretically, isn’t it just a matter of changing the data nodes to the new format? Is there an automated way of transitioning this functionality to reference the Umbraco core? Can you help us with some script for that? Or what manual changes do we need to make?

Thank you.
I think there are new property editors for each of the ones you have listed from v6:
You might want to look at the PhoenixConvertors project as a starting point for converting your data:
Also what might be useful is the Census package before you begin.
Further advice on v7 upgrades can be found here:
Thanks you for youre response Simon.
Do you know a way of running the Phoenix converters without using the Visual Studio console? We do not have VS of integration.
Also is there a way to view the SQL directly?
Thanks
