Hi
I would like to import a number of articles with certain IDs from a 3.10.12 version into a migrated page (version 5.3). New IDS should be assigned and the customfields should also be imported. What is the best way to do this?
Kind regards
Christoph

Hello Christoph,
You can use id field in import file to have specific IDs and in Joomla content import template on Options tab set Keep content ID to Yes. This will import articles with IDs set in import file. Custom fields will be created to the ID article is assigned to.

Hello Tharuna
Many thanks for the quick reply! But the articles should be imported with new IDs. That means, if I set Keep content ID to No in the Options tab, then new ID'S will be created?
Kind regards

Hello Christoph,
Yes with Keep content ID set to No new IDs will be created. Also skip id column from import file if you have it.

Hello Tharuna
I use the joomla Content Import Example. I established a connection to the DB. But now, where exactly do i have to set the row of ids (for Example 2884,2886,2887,2891,2892,2895,2896,2897,2898,2899,2900,2901,2902,2903,2904,2905,2906,2907,2909,2910,2911)?
kind regards

Hello Christoph,
Now I am confused
By new IDs you mean that articles should be created with the IDs you have?

Hi Thamura
Thanks again. Sorry for confusing you. Ich have certain Articles in the old system. With some ID's: (2884,2886,2887,2891,2892,2895,2896,2897,2898,2899,2900,2901,2902,2903,2904,2905,2906,2907,2909,2910,2911) In the meantime, in the new parallel-System, some new Articles have the same id but other content. So i want to import all these specific Articles (and only these) to the new system. And all these articles are to receive new IDs.
I hope my request is clear now ;-)
Kind regards
Christoph
