Anyone been through the upgrade to drupal 5 yet? I'm sorta dreading it with all the mods and customizing I've done to my drupal sites. I'll definitely wait till Whatever mods are upgraded and there is some chatter about it.
What a pain this has turned out to be. After I gave up and sought quotes, I found that even teams of drupal experts would need to work at it for a week. I think I could actually go faster by doing a fresh install in a test folder with the new mods and pasting the content over for a few days... thousands of pages with descriptons, keywords, titles, dates, categories, url rewrites... hmmm maybe not.
Thank you for this post! I have been considering whether or not i should try to tackle upgrading from 4.7 to 5.. Now i have my answer.
Well, if you have a basic install it might be a pain, but not be so bad. But I have all kinds of modules that haven't been upgraded yet. The real nuisance is flexinode. Since I have special nodes and paths etc., converting it cck would be a major chore.
