lynne.walsh

Is your team gearing up to migrate a site into Drupal 8? In this presentation, I’ll walk through the steps I’ve taken to prep my developer for a Drupal 8 migration. Topics covered will include the following:

Putting together and understanding your inventory
How to use your inventory findings to plan out a migration
Creating a field mapping spreadsheet
Different ways to migrate data and when to use each
Planning a website migration may seem like a daunting task, but it doesn't have to be. Be a resource for your developer and help them work smarter, and faster.

This session will be presented by a content strategist who has led large-scale projects, ranging from a 20+ language migration to multiple content overhauls for nonprofit organizations.
