Migration

Important

Before updating from a version before 0.3 to 1.0 or up you should update to version 0.3.2 first and execute the upgrade wizards. Then update to the newest version and run the next upgrade wizards.

From version 0.3 to 1.0

In version 1.0 the format changed how the active widgets for a site are stored in the site configuration. For the migration of this configuration an upgrade wizard is available.

Attention

As with all upgrades: Please backup your data before executing the upgrade wizard!

The migration can be started in the TYPO3 backend via Admin Tools > Upgrade > Upgrade Wizard.

Note

After executing the upgrade wizard you have to flush the cache via the module Admin Tools > Maintenance.

The migration wizard updates:

  • File config/<site_identifier>/config.yaml

From version 0.2 to 0.3

To allow the configuration of more than one Matomo instance the configuration moved from the extension configuration to the site management.

Attention

As with all upgrades: Please backup your data before executing the upgrade wizard!

Note

If only one site is available the migration of the configuration can be done with a upgrade wizard. If there is more than one site configured you have to migrate the configuration by yourself. For this purpose the extension configuration is still available but has no effect at all.

Migrating from extension configuration to site configuration

The migration can be started in the TYPO3 backend via Admin Tools > Upgrade > Upgrade Wizard.

Hint

If you use Git for versioning your site configuration you should consider to store the authentication token in an environment variable for better security.

Migrating the dashboard widgets

As the identifiers of the dashboard widgets have changed they can also be migrated to the new identifiers. If multiple site configuration exist the widgets have to be assigned manually to the dashboards again.

The migration can be started in the TYPO3 backend via Admin Tools > Upgrade > Upgrade Wizard.
