Templavoila Converter

This is a converter from the content stored in Templavoilas flexform to database fields. It respects all content and pages-content.
You can use the converted data out of the box with our extension Mask in a modern TYPO3 version.
It is also possible to use the data for other extensions or other CMS directly from the database.

The converter solved our main issue - replaceing TemplaVoila to work with fluid-based pure TYPO3 stuff. We get a perfect support from the team to make it work. Great!
