New Post: How to migrate from mojoportal cms to composite c1

If the mojoportal cms database is reasonably easy queried so it can give you page title, content you can write a converter - here is tips on how to create c1 pages programmatically http://docs.composite.net/Data/Adding-pages-with-Csharp

There are a few things that you typically need to take info account:

• url mapping, so internal links also work after migration
• importing media (images, documents etc) and fixing links to those
• ensuring that the content html is structured like valid xhtml document (like running it through TidyHTML)
  

We recently did a migration from Ektron CMS - here the database was so fragmented (required a lot of cms logic to be stitched together) that doing a pull from SQL tables was not feasible. Instead we wrote a "generic" crawler that pulled the pages from the public website, pulled out content and created c1 pages, media and site specific data.

Let me try to get this project online. It will require tweaking - but for basic page/media import it will be a super helpful starting point (it creates pages, imports images, documents, fixes links etc). It was written for a "one time import" so don't expect stellar documentation, high quality or fancy options. We will post when we have it online.
