 Description   

Create a page with tips for migrating STK to 5.4.x based Magnolia
cringele proposed "Get STK running in M5.4.x" which sounds good.

SUPPORT-5110 describes an issue on which customers or partners using 5.3.x migrating to 5.4. stumble over quite often.
Let's have a page describing what must be done.

Clarify differences between CE and EE where required.

Please also note differences between CE and EE.
(Things like "you don't have to care about this and that when using EE ..." etc. pp)

I've documented what I can at https://documentation.magnolia-cms.com/display/DOCS/STK+changes+in+5.4. As it stands, the page describes the changes in the demo-project sites in 5.4, but doesn't give the user enough information about migrating their own STK projects to 5.4. We need developer input.

This is what I think is missing, but there's probably more:
1 - Templates section: How do you move your templates from the templates workspace to the resources workspace. The possible alternatives seem to be 1 - somehow convert xml exports to suit the resources workspace 2- upload scripts in the app (tedious) 3 - some kind of update task.
2 - Is it possible to add the new templating methods (sitefn, catfn and searchfn) to the stk renderer. stkfn has equivalent methods that will probably conflict.
3 - What do you need to do, if anything, within your STK project to move theme resources to the Resource Files app?
4 - What other steps do you need to take to get your STK project working in 5.4?

The 1st thing to do here: Once again let us ask cringele what he really wanted.

Beside that:
I think it should be mainly about „migrating STK based projects from 5.3.x to 5.4.x"
If that’s true, the page could even go to https://wiki.magnolia-cms.com/display/MIGRATION/Migration
