Joomla! Showcase Directory
Karjalainen
A website for 8. largest municipal newspaper in Finland. Between 300 000 to 400 000 weekly visitors. We provide latest provincial, homeland and world news along with extra content for subscribers.
Site was migrated from proprietary web publishing system first to Joomla 1.5. There were some 30 000 items or so to be converted as an understandable Joomla! content with correct content in correct fields. That took some time to get done. After that the migration to 2.5 was much easier and then 3.x upgrading was a breeze.
