DEPRECATION WARNING
This documentation is not using the current rendering mechanism and is probably outdated. The extension maintainer should switch to the new system. Details on how to use the rendering mechanism can be found here.
UpgradingΒΆ
If you upgrade your TYPO3 CMS installation from one major version to another (for example 6.2 to 7.6), it is advised to run the Upgrade Wizards. They guide you through the necessary steps to upgrade your database records or explicitly install extensions that ship with the latest TYPO3 CMS version.
Coming from an older version it might be that the basic content elements, provided by the core of TYPO3 CMS were rendered by the extension "CSS Styled Content (css_styled_content)". Some changes have been made since moving the rendering to the extension "fluid_styled_content". Some database fields of the table tt_content are no longer used, the fields of FlexForms have been moved to proper database fields and the content elements "Text" and "Text & Images" have been merged into a new content element "textmedia". To make sure you do not lose any information or the content elements look differently on your upgraded website run these Upgrade Wizards.
The upgrade wizards can be found in the Install tool.

Attention
The predefined CONTENT objects styles.content.getLeft,
styles.content.getRight and styles.content.getBorder are not
provided anymore. styles.content.get still exists for your convenience. Most of
the current websites are using "backend layouts", where the predefined numbering of the
columns does not make sense.
Tip
If you are still using the predefined CONTENT objects, you can use the following TypoScript:
styles.content {
# get content, left
getLeft < styles.content.get
getLeft.select.where = colPos=1
# get content, right
getRight < styles.content.get
getRight.select.where = colPos=2
# get content, border
getBorder < styles.content.get
getBorder.select.where = colPos=3
# get news
getNews < styles.content.get
getNews.select.pidInList = {$styles.content.getNews.newsPid}
}
