Summary

 

Introduction and Sponsorship: Tim Davis introduces the video and mentions sponsors CyberSalt's Joomla training cohort and mysites.guru.

Migration Issue: A client migrated from K2 to Joomla core, but encountered issues with tags not appearing in the batch options.

Missing Tags: During the batch process, tags created during migration did not appear despite existing in the tags component.

Database Investigation: Used phpMyAdmin to investigate the tags table, noticing differences between tags that appeared and those that did not.

Identified Differences: Tags with a parent ID of zero and empty parameters were not showing up, while those with a parent ID of one did.

Testing a Solution: Edited a sample tag manually to match the format of showing tags, which confirmed the parent ID change made it appear.

Using DB Replacer: Employed DB Replacer from Regular Labs to update the parent ID for all tags from zero to one.

Applying the Fix: Replaced the parent ID values efficiently using DB Replacer, ensuring all tags were correctly formatted.

Verifying Changes: Checked the tags table to confirm all updates, then verified in Joomla that the tags now appeared in the batch process.

Final Adjustments: Reverted the parent ID for the root tag to zero and concluded with advice on investigating database discrepancies for similar issues.
