To ensure the smoothest transition possible, you must prepare now by cleaning up old and unused content on your existing Drupal 7 website.
Your staff is best positioned to determine which pages, images, files, and videos are outdated and may need to be unpublished or deleted. If you are having difficulty revising or deleting any content or data, please make a note of it and discuss it with your CivicPlus representative during your migration planning session.
The following are some guidelines for completing some of these tasks:
Review older Content (such as Pages or News posts) to assess if it's valuable and used by residents or if it should be unpublished, and then deleted
Remove/delete old, unpublished content
Review Webforms
Remove unpublished/unused/outdated web forms
Review Events and News
Delete past, expired, and unwanted events and news items
Review Images
Delete unused, outdated, or unpublished images
Review Quick Links and Directories
Remove outdated links or contacts
Agendas, Minutes, and Meetings information
