Solved Helix Framework

Migrating from RocketTheme/Gantry Framework?

Asked by Brad Thompson 3 years ago Last activity 3 years ago

How hard is it to migrate a Joomla 4 website that uses Rockettheme and Gantry framework to SP Page Builder and the Helix Framework Ultimate?

I'm looking for tips, best practices and any success stories.

Currently, I'm invisoning installing SPB and Helix and creating new parallel pages, then forwarding the URLs, then deleting the Rocket pages, and restoring the page URLs. Then uninstalling Rocket and Gantry.

Hi Brad,

indeed, each template framework has different struture, data storage method. So as Pavel said, just rebuild new layout looking at the old layout grid and yes, you can even use similar module positions.

big thx Pavel, as always.

Hi. You are on the right track - this is the only way. There is no means of migration between template-frameworks and between pages builders. Only rebuild manually.
