old Bonito URLs to Crystal compatible ones

[Behrang Q. Zadeh]

Hi, 

Is there a straightforward method to convert old bonito URLs to ones that are compatible with the new Crystal interface? 

I have migrated from the old Bonito 3.*+Manatee to the new setup of Bonito+Manatee+Crystal and all the links in my webpages are now broken.

 

The base of URLs can be easily decided i.e. e.g. to use crystal/#dashboard? or crystal/#concordance? instead of bonito/run.cgi?[QUERY]  but I cannot figure out how to convert the [QUERY] bit (the old QUERY seems not to work)

Can anyone help please?

All the best

Behrang

Hi Behrang,
unfortunately, there's no automatic way to do it. In some cases, you can use search parameters from the Bonito call directly in Crystal (such as in Thesaurus), and it will work. However, in other cases, although most of the parameters remain unchanged, you'll still need to modify the ones that did. To identify the changes, you need to recreate the search in Crystal and then examine the final URL. 

Best regards!

Tomas
