Upgrade path from emfield in D6

Great idea! Did you manage to make the upgrade path? Or do you have any hints how you managed to do it? Would be very interesting to hear.

I know I can upgrade d6 emfield to the d7 media module with https://drupal.org/sandbox/kleinmp/1261456 but I really would prefer not to have to add that huge media module to the installation just for a youtube field and your module is perfect for this.

hansrossel,

Unless jenlampton responds otherwise, I don't believe this upgrade path was ever created. However...

This module has Feeds support and you can use Feeds to import content (more on this). All you really need from the source is the video's URL and the Feeds target will properly extract the video ID.

I can't provide more specific instructions/help without really digging deeper. Let me know if you need me to. It would be nice to provide those instructions in this thread for anyone else that has the same question. If you do figure out a solution, please share it. Thanks!

Gus

There is now also a migration field destination handler for this module thanks to #2282965: Migration destination handler. That presents a second option for upgrading from similar 6.x modules (in addition to Feeds, see the previous comment). That being said, those options are quite a bit more complicated than a built in upgrade path so I'm going to leave this open should anyone decide to write a patch for this and share it. There is otherwise no active development on this task.

Closing due to a lack of interest after 2 years of inactivity.
