Conversion to K2 from Joomla! completed

Written by Lyle

As the title states, the site has now been converted to K2 from Joomlaworks. There now are no Joomla! Sections, Categories or Articles; all content is a K2 item. Additionally, there are three instances of the K2 ‘tools’ module, namely Latest Comments, Calendar and Tags. The K2 'Import Joomla! articles' was used to convert the previous Joomla! content. I have only begun to explore all the possibilities that this fantastic extension has to offer. Stay tuned.

The images in the Manual and Digital Artwork areas are displayed using the Simple Image Gallery plugin, also from Joomlaworks.

Artisteer 2.2 was used to create the new template, which was then modified 'by hand' to allow for the transparent header background as well as the link on the graphic. A step-by-step guide as to how this was accomplished will be available soon at www.2ninerniner2.com.

Bonjour,

Yeah, this is me, at my "office" -  the terrace of the Java U café on the corner of rue Guy and de Maisonneuve in beautiful downtown Montreal, Quebec, Canada.

Cheers!

Lyle

    Did you have to transfer everything by manually copying things or was that automated?

    It looks as though the conversion to K2 went well. I also enjoy the new template.
