Good morning,
I wish to move a document type from the current level in the tree, down one level.
My document type “Gallery” is currently sitting at:
BaseDocumentType > BaseWebpage
I wish to move it so it’s parent is now StandardContent
BaseDocumentType > BaseWebpage > StandardContent
The problem is I have to do this on more than one server. I make the change on a local server, but then deploy to Staging and then to pre-prod after that.
I am using uSync to control doctypes. Currently my method to get this to work is to export the Gallery doctype, delete the old doctype, edit the export file so that it contains the correct parent, then import the doctype into Umbraco again.
However in the end this still Deletes the doctype in local, and a usync file is created that shows this. this means my content associated with this doctype is also deleted when I deploy this change to staging!
Is there a nice hack you can use to trick uSync into simply moving a doctype?
