    Using cms import to import umbraco.config

    im trying to use cmsimport to migrate an old umbraco install to a new one, instead of trying to uograde through many steps.

    Things are going well, until trying to import the content. Bodytext and other page elements reside inside the "Data" node...

    Im using the following xpath to get the nodes 

    //node[@parentID='1186']

     

    Is there a way to get the data elements imported?

    Hi Claus,

    It is possible but not with the default Data Adapter. I think I could create a seperat DataAdapter but I assume you need it like now? About to leave for a small holiday When do you need it?

    Thanks,

    Richard

    Thanks,

    Will be a seperate add-on I think but nice indeed. Will only import old format otherwise I'm competing with Courier. I'll keep you posted and remind me when I forget ;-)

    Thanks,

    Richard

    Fro anyone else trying to do this, try out [EyeCatch] XML Generator to export nodes from the old site. This "flattens" the xml, making it easy to import with cmsimport.
