When the target lacks some content #

Know what happens to a hand-picked article that does not exist on the target.

Life cycle: Migrate, example 4 of 34. Worked out on the Fit & Healthy site of Exponential 6.0.15+.

In the Layouts editor #

1. After an import with drop, check hand-picked lists for gaps.

On the command line #

1. --unmapped=fail stops the import and shows what is missing; drop (default) leaves those items out; keep keeps the reference as it is.
2. ./console exp:layouts import layouts.zip --dry-run --unmapped=fail and read the States (new, identical, changed, conflicting).
3. Run it again without --dry-run, with the --strategy you chose and --publish if the result should be live at once.
4. Nothing to clear by hand: since explayouts_core 1.0.10 an import with --publish purges the page cache itself.

Which to choose #

fail first, to see the list; then import the content or choose drop.

• Manual collections have the expected items.
