Hi all! I'm currently working on a upgrade from Umbraco 7 to Umbraco 13. I'm trying to get all my content in a new Umbraco 13 database and change the "old" grid system to the new Block Grid. I found the uSync Migration tool and was able to create a .zip file using the packer in the Umbraco 7 project. When importing the zip file and choosing the migration plan I get two options. The upgrade plan and the one step upgrade plan. I tried both now with the following results. When I choose the upgrade plan I end up with all the content as expected but still using the old grid system. When I run the convert option of uSync Migrations and choose the plan to covert the grid to the block grid system nothing happens. When I choose the one step upgrade plan the migration runs fine, the grid system is changed to the block grid system but without any content in it. In both cases I don't get any errors in my log viewer and everything seems to run successful. Does anyone have any experience with this tool and have any additional info which might help me to finish the upgrade successfully? If you need any more info please let me know!

hey man, how did it go? i am trying to do the same thing

No progress so far but I will keep you updated!

Hi, I will start with a disclaimer 😃 : uSync.Migrations is very much not a point and click solution for migrations (unless you're lucky) and depending on local setup etc, there will prob be issues things might not work. the whole project is open to additions to fix any issues etc. We don't offer "uSync" style support for migrations because of the complexities of upgrades etc. and because its a side hack project really. but.. I would say probably the best way to go from grids in v7 -> block grids in v13 is to do it in a few steps checking and re-exporting as you go. 1. as above upload the v7 do a migration of everything into the site. and check that looks right. 2. in the normal uSync dashboard run a full clean export of the now converted site. (this will get you a clean uSync/v9 folder to do the conversion on. 3. Create a new conversion project in uSync.Migrations - pick the convert plan, run and fingers crossed. if things don't work its probably worth digging into the 'migrate' folders in uSync and looking to see if you can see any block grid stuff in the content. also - because its often super slow, i rename the uSync/v9/media folder to something else first time around, if you have lots of media you don't want to be converting it every time. hope that helps. the repo issues https://github.com/Jumoo/uSyncMigrations/issues might have some other pointers issues people have had. and the code is there too. if you want to dive deeper.
