As of SDL Tridion 2011, Custom Pages have a new XML format. If you are upgrading from a release before SDL Tridion 2011, use the Custom Page Converter tool to convert your existing Custom Page XML files to new ones.
Procedure
- Open a command line prompt.
- Access the
Content Manager\Additional Tools\Upgrade Support folder of the SDL Tridion installation media and run CustomPagesConverter.exe using the following command (without parameters):
- If you run the converter without parameters, it will try to use the registry key \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Tridion\Content Manager Web Site\InstallDirWebSite to locate the source and destination Custom Page XML files:
- If, for some reason, the registry key cannot be found, you can also run the converter and specify the two mandatory parameters (the old and new Custom Pages files) yourself. For example, on a 32-bit system, type:
CustomPagesConverter.exe "C:\Program Files\Tridion\web\Library\XML\CustomPages.xml"
"C:\Program Files\Tridion\web\WebUI\Editors\CME\Preferences\CustomPages.xml"
You can run also the following command to show the available options for the converter:
CustomPagesConverter.exe /?
