Hi there

If somone could answer a simple question it could save me much time ~ The G2 >> G3 module, does it allow selective importation of content from G2, and will it allow import to a G3 instance with content on it already?.

Many thanks

It is only possible to import the whole g2. Afair you can import into a g3 with content.

Ok... One more scenario ~ If your G2 where to be copied to G3, and then later updated, would it be possible to import only the changes (I.E. will duplicates be made, or will they be overwritten at the second G2 >> G3?)

No.

Err, scratch that. Let me do the same thing you could and try it. Will report back.

Actually, it appears this is the way it works. I imported G2 install with 42 images. Added an image and it was imported.

I also deleted an image and ran the import again and that image was reimported.
