Title: Gallery migrate from 1x to 2x
Post by: freshmilk on May 05, 2009, 09:54:34 AM

Hello all,

We have just migrate our SME Server from 7.1 to 7.4 on a new server.

We have lot of photo on gallery 1.4 on SME 7.1.

Is there a way we can migrate the photo albums to SME 7.4  running Gallery2.

Many thanks in advance.

Moving this topic to the SME 7.x contribs forum, it is more appropriate there. Thanks!

I guess you can but there is not much SME Server specific to this so I think you are better of with this: http://codex.gallery2.org/Gallery2:migration

Hi, I migrated many gallery1 to gallery2. The best option as cactus point out is to visit the gallery website.
A hint: If you installed gallery using the contrib, be carefull not to remove it before a full backup.
The rest is easy, gallery2 requires mysql, you can install it, enable the plugin that migrates from version 1 and tell it where the old gallery is.

Good luck.
