Migration for Archetype
# help-with-umbraco
o
Does anyone know if there is any migration plan anywhere for Archetype from Umbraco 7 to 8? Thanks

uSync migrations has an Archetype migrator https://github.com/Jumoo/uSyncMigrations/issues/77

Please note that nested content is also obsolete and will be removed in v14 😅 Not sure what uSync migrates it to.

uSync migration handles nested content to block list 🙂

Ah! Perfect, that's future-proof!

It also does grid - block grid

Usync Migration is the best

Can it work from U7 to U8 though, the docs seem to suggest only U7 to U10? There are reasons I can't go to U10 😄
k
uSync file format is the same v8 - v10, so it can work for v8 - but you would have to run in on v10 and then grab the migrated uSync files and import them on v8 - and then think about your life choices 😉

Thanks @Kevin Jump Good to know.

haha
Curious about the main reason you can't go to 10 @Owain ?
o
Got some 3rd party stuff running that isn't on Core yet.
s
Extract them out and proxy them! 😅 Ok Ok. I know... And just realized that we talked you out of using your new boss' tooling .. 😉 However, Block Grid doesn't exists in 8 does it? So that part wouldn't work.
o
Not sure if Block Grid has been used on this project so may not be an issue.
s
Block Grid was introduced in v11 😉 you're thinking legacy Grid 🙂
o
Can't keep up with what's in what these days 😄
