Uprade from VM 2.6.14 to VM 3.0.2

[Webgeist]

Hello community,

now that my upgrade went well from VM2 to VM3 without major problems, I now have one more question.

What does this with the "inherited old vm2 Custom remove" in the folder "tools" to do? What exactly happens in this function? I could not see exactly from the German translation.

Or does it mean about that after you click on this button all the "Custom Fields" are deleted from VM2? That would of course not so great.

For an answer I would be very grateful.
Regards Faro

A slightly better explanation is here: http://docs.virtuemart.net/tutorials/installation-migration-upgrade/198-upgrade-virtuemart-2-to-virtuemart-3.html
"VirtueMart 3 uses a slightly changed database layout of VM2..."

Hello Administrator,

could you please post in the category "Installation, Migration and Upgrade" Move? Somehow he slipped in the wrong category.

Hello jjk,

thank you for your reply. This link I have already read, but unfortunately he does not answer my question.
I wanted to ask if "Custom remove old vm2 inherited" all "Custom Fields" are deleted from VM2 after you click on this button?

Thank you Webgeist

In my case the custom fields for child products were not deleted and available in the new VM3 format, but the developers strongly recommend to test that with a copy of your own site first. And make shure to have a backup available in case they do become deleted for whatever reason.

Hello Community,

This reset does work without any problems. Unfortunately, now two of my plugins will not work. The "vm_2click_sicial". Is there an update? In the VM extensions I have not found it.

It's there: http://extensions.virtuemart.net/products/click-social-buttons-detail
but it's not yet updated for Joomla 3.x
