[Setup] Migrating from ATPhoto to Image

Wed Sep 19 07:11:23 UTC 2012

Hi, just for your informations,

using quintagroup.transmogrifier, you will be able to export the entire 
site structure of your Plone 2.5.x site to a hierarchy of folders/xml 
files containing the data.  You have then performed the "export" step.

Then, when importing this into the new Plone 4 site, you will perform 
the "import" step and then during import, some transform can be applied 
to managed xml files (using xslt), so, a XML file defining a ATPhoto 
will be transformed during import and for example, the type will change 
from ATPhoto to ATImage so created elements are ATImages, there can be 
attribute names/values changes, ... to the imported XML files...

Have a nice day,
