Utility to convert Flexinode nodes into CCK nodes. The conversion currently has limitations, but is quite usable (and hopefully further users can help expand the functionality).

Limitations:

  • Not every text field will convert perfectly. The best ones are generic text fields like URL and email (among others).
  • Does not currently convert Flexinode field settings to CCK.
  • Content of type "image" is ignored as this is assumed to be either the image.module content type or a custom image content type.

Features:

  • Converts all of your custom Flexinode content to CCK content.
  • Old Flexinode database tables are retained if you need them later.

Dependencies:

  • The CCK module.
  • All the modules that come along with CCK. This is checked by the code, but this may be relieved in later releases.

Note:
The 5.x-0.3 release has been posted. It may have problems and whatnot so use at your own risk.

Steps

  1. Install and enable CCK and all of it's packaged modules.
  2. Install and enable Flexiconvert.
  3. Go to admin/flexiconvert/convert.
  4. Read the directions CAREFULLY.
  5. Select the Flexinode types you'd like to convert and click "Convert".
  6. Your content should have converted.
