Drupal 8.x

Good day,

I'm a greenhorn technical assistant at a public library and one of the things I need to do someday is get our site off Drupal 6. In order to test the migration, I've gotten a virtual machine going with a clean install of 8.6.1. I have all the web files copied over and I have the ability to connect to the Drupal 6 database from this VM.

hi ,

i would like to get the id of the formatter and the id of widget really used by my given field

How to do ?

Thx

I have done countless backups and reinstalls of drupal 7 but I have hit a brickwall with drupal 8

I had done a backup via Softaculous of a non production site and also manual backup, but when trying to upgrade to 8.5.6 it killed it and I have not been able to successfully reinstall the backups. I am doing manual ftp, I have no knowledge of drush or any other method.

I have a smaller version of the now dead site and I tried to clone it via softaculous but the result is an incomplete installation. The core is missing and my host has not responded after several hours.

Can someone please point me to a source of support for using Paragraphs in D8 Adaptivetheme?  It is all a mystery to me and I don't find any help anywhere.  Everyone seems to be providing tutorials for Bootstrap only.  I have built many great sites with D7 AT and I think D8 AT is a great achievement but I just can't figure out Paragraphs in D8 AT.

Specifically,

Hello once again!

User on my site can currently upload media (Video or Images) directly to my Drupal 8 site for viewing and sharing. However thinking it over it would be nice if I could store those video on something like Amazon S3 or just another server with more storage.

I am looking at using the Flysystem module and am wondering if anyone else has tried this and has any other suggested module that can be used with Drupal 8.

Thanks in Advance for the assistance,

Chris

I am using the slideshow module. The content type adds these fields:

Image, Slogan, Slogan text, text position (Text List)

The text position field has possible selections of;

left top

left centre

left bottom

centre top

centre centre

centre bottom

right top 

right centre

right bottom

The idea being that once a selection is made the Slogan and the Slogan text can be positioned differently. This will allow the text to be repositioned depending on the image used in the slideshow.
