README

Since the extension craffft/contao-photoalbums2 is not maintained and does not support Contao 5, you can use bwein-net/contao-gallery. This bundle provides a migration for photoalbums2 to gallery.

Installation

Install the bundle via Composer:

composer require bwein-net/contao-migrate-pa2-gallery

Run the migration

After the installation you can run the migration via console contao:migrate or you open the contao install tool.

Attention: The tables of the new extension bwein-net/contao-gallery must to be empty!

Edit settings and data

Since only the archives and albums are being migrated, some settings and data need to be edited.

Please configure or check the following manually:

• redirect pages of gallery categories
• frontend modules with all options
  • gallery list with template album_simple or album_latest
  • gallery reader with template album_full
• template customization - especially album_latest and album_full
  • adjust the meta info (event, place, photographer)
• css customization
• user permissions
  • permissions for gallery categories
  • allowed table fields of tl_bwein_gallery_category and tl_bwein_gallery
• protected categories (member groups are now only supported and no longer explicit members)
• categories for each language - please install: terminal42/contao-changelanguage

Uninstall extensions

Once you've completed the migration and set up the galleries, you can and should uninstall both extensions:

composer remove bwein-net/contao-migrate-pa2-gallery
composer remove craffft/contao-photoalbums2
