Does this mean I have to throw away my current VS Solution/Project and create an entriely new one? Or does it mean I have to recreate all DocumentTypes, Media and other Assets and can keep the project? If so, that would take a while. Is it possible to automate it?
No, idea is migrate database on new Umbraco installation, it mean create new Umbraco 8 installation, connect existing (version 7 db), execute migration to 8. After you can use previous solution (of course you should update all packages and migrate to new API)
Need help in understanding the 'Migrating content to Umbraco 8' guide.
Dear friends,
I do not understand the following part: "Instead, you will need to migrate your content from your Umbraco 7 site into your Umbraco 8 site and then recreate the rest in the new version."
