I truly feel ill having to perform this task, but I know I am blessed, because as a last resort, I know I can hand-type the information for all 4000 of my products into a wordpress shopping cart and be free of Virtuemart, and Joomla! forever!
Be that as it may, I am curious if there is any real way to get from 1.16 to the current.
i know I have to use the ugly interface and the tiny font, but the import / export process seems impossible.
I see from VirtueMart's own web site that I can't export from the old and import to the new
http://extensions.virtuemart.net/extensions-virtuemart-2/import-export
that's one kick in the nuts, but the other is that I can't migrate either
http://extensions.virtuemart.net/migration-vm1-vm2
What a hit to the nut sacks from Joomla! and VirtueMart!
Simple CSV is dead, and CSV Improved also returns a kick in the nut sack.
Is there anyway this awful Joomla! crap is gonna go on any longer like this?
A migration facility is built in the VM2 - see http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=95236.0 for instructions.
