We're currently using Joomla 1.5 with Flexicontent. We want to revamp with Joomla 1.7 and would prefer to switch over to K2 for template compatibility and a lot of other small issues that have been bothersome with Flexicontent (has been a problem with our older JoomlaBamboo template and Flexicontent).

How would K2 handle our database? Would it recognize the same tags, categories, etc? Not pros, just amateurs who built a website and don't want to give ourselves a nightmare project.

Hi.

It's not built-in to K2 but if you are able to export the flexicontent in csv format with all the tags/cat etc, then you could use the "K2 Import / Export" extension:

Good luck!

Thank you. I'll give it a try.
