Configuration

Preconditions for Migration:

We assume you have EXT:grid elements and EXT:container Extension.For migration you must set Container Configuration same as Grid Configuration !

When you make the container configuration then some points are strict to follow for migration process Container CType and Old Gridelements tx_gridelements_backend_layout the key must be the same.

For Example : I need to migrate the Grid of “nsBase1Col” then while in container configuration, you need to put container’s CType as “nsBase1Col”

Container CType

Container CType

For colPos > Grid colPos: For example, the Grid’s Colpos is ‘1’ then while in container configuration you need to put colPos higher than Grid. like ‘101’ Because In migration process, we make the same container’s colpos with which comes of grid’s colPos for the placing Content Elements of Grid in Container while migrating. Like. Grid ColPos** ‘1’[tx_gridelements_columns] and in container configuration, colPos is ‘101’**

Then in migrating process, we make same colPos for placing Content Elements $colPos = $element[‘tx_gridelements_columns’] + 100;”

Grid_colposs
While container colPos must be different like
