Migration notes¶ ↑

This plugin stores contents in HTML format and renders as is. If you have old contents, these look weird.

You can use redmine_per_project_formatting plugin for backward compatibility or execute redmine_ckeditor:migrate task for migrating old text to HTML.

rake redmine_ckeditor:migrate RAILS_ENV=production FROM=textile TO=html

You can also use PROJECT parameter to migrate only specific projets

rake redmine_ckeditor:migrate RAILS_ENV=production PROJECT=project_identifier1,project_identifier2 FROM=textile TO=html

This task requires to install Pandoc.
