The history
A very old Drupal 6 site
Key features“CPD” system for membersOnline course/results registrationEventsJobs
Why migrate?
Drupal 6 EOL24th February 2016
Newer theme
Wanted to extend online tools
Our plan(Because everything goes to plan)
Website migration?
What could go wrong?!
Plan ahead!- Research modules- Discuss order to import- Client content audit(aka – what do you not still need?)
- Migrate- Design & develop features- Launch
Key points- Legacy content- “CPD” system for members- Online course/results registration- Events- Content vital to their status
Migrate (d.o/project/migrate)- Migrate users, roles, pages, webforms- Alex did this (sorry Alex!)
The outcome
Content migration- Kind of worked for basic node content and Views, too- Some taxonomies missing- File attachments
Views- Import/export tools worked really well!
Newer, responsive design
Pain points- Content migration (expected!)- Shear bulk of content, especially files- Legacy content vs responsive
