Upgrade instructions for moving from blogsy 2 to 3 with mvc?
Is there instructions or any help upgrading from blogsy version 2 to 3 and moving from webforms to mvc within an existing install?
I upgraded umbraco from 4.11.10 to 6.1.6 and moved from webforms to mvc before upgrading. Blogsy version 2 was installed. After upgrading to 6.1.6, I installed blogsy version 3.0.1 (via local package install). It overwrote the existing blogsy templates, etc.
This created a new content tree. Now I need to copy over/convert my old posts into the new structure create by blogsy 3. Right now I try to copy the nodes to the new 2013 year folder without any luck. I get an error saying nodes cannot be copied because the template is not allowed.
I would not advise this as it's going to be quite manual. This is because tags and labels (categories) are not content nodes. Also, the views have some significant changes.
You could package up your content in the developer section, edit the package xml to the new datefolders doctype names, then reinstall. But first, you'll probably have to create the tag nodes manually so you can do a find and replace on the tag names with the new tag node ids.

The main question is how to port old version 2 blogsy post to new version 3 posts? I bet one of the you guys could write a script to do this???

Any direction/help would be appreciated!!
Thank you for you time,
