Migration from 1.9 to 2.0.xx

Hi, In another post a dev recommand me to migrate from 1.9 to 2.0.11 without any warning.
I suspect there is some changement with some adjustment...
but after upgrading :

• My custom template don't work at all and i don't know how to adapt it (I have used a lot of micro-data, fields are called one by one...)
• my 2x user list have to be re-made
• my 3x menu have to be re-made
• new version of each plug-in don't seems to upgrade the older one just install nex to...
• now I have to pay more (I already pay from a long time for cb add-ons) for not having a footer with joomlapolis

It's a real nightmare. Yes I have a backup and I can back to 1.9 but the initial issue will not be solved ans it back a long time...

Thanks for inform me of all of this works I have to do now...

I recommend unpublishing all non-core CB plugins, unpublishing all integrations with CB (K2, Kunena, CBSubs system plugins, admin nav module, etc..). Once done install CB 2.x. This should avoid any conflicts that could prevent migration from working correctly. Joomla menu items aren't migrated and don't need to be re-created; just edit them and fix their menu type since that assignment was broken in CB 1.x. Your userlists should be fine, but if not please detail what didn't migrate.

If your custom template is a CB template then it won't be compatible with CB 2.x as we've completely redone all of the frontend HTML and are using Bootstrap 3 in CB 2.x.

CB plugins do not upgrade automatically on install of CB. Only core plugins included with CB do. For the others you need to use the below chart.

There's also several videos below for CB 2.x

The below video also describes what to expect.

We've also a CB 2.0 Primer Book below to help detail CB 2.x usage.

It's also strongly recommended to upgrade a clone of your site so you know exactly what to expect for your live upgrade.

Hi,
Once the anger away, I consider all the work and I roll-back my server.
My template (list and detail view) that you could see here is a lot of work thaht could not be done in a morning.

All my list have lost their parameters (filters, sort..).
I have looked at some videos but I understand I had done a lot of customization (override only no hack !) and hat I need is a "how to template CB" doc in order to re-dev my own template.

Your userlist shouldn't have lost its filters, sorting, or anything of the sort. It's possible an error occurred during the migration causing it to be an incomplete migration.

I've no idea how you styled CB so I've no idea what the suggest. The proper way is through a CB template, but all CB 1.x templates are incompatible with CB 2.x as we've changed to Bootstrap and rewritten all of our HTML. For CB 2.0 to make adjustments to existing styling it's suggested to use an override template. See the below tutorial on how to do this.

Ok, I think I will work on that later... start 2016 with the client.

Now the hard question : can I have a refund on my 3 month renewal I take for this attempt of migration or put my membership on "waiting" mode because I'm not going to work on this migration during these 3 month...

THanks for your help.
