Django-MPTT is unmaintained. Migrate to Django-Treebeard? #306

Open greyhare opened 1 year ago

greyhare commented 1 year ago

The Django-MPTT README says that it's currently maintained.

I'm looking at adding Machina to a website I'm designing, and nothing else uses MPTT. Everything tree-related (e.g. Django CMS) is using Django Treebeard.

Are there any plans to migrate?

Hey! 👋 I am not working actively on Django-machina at the moment, so I can't promise anything regarding this. I'll happily review any pull requests related to such migration though! 🙂

Fair enough. Any general ideas on how to approach it? Like where to look for the parts that use MPTT now?

MPTT is used in order to implement the tree of forums (each forum can have child forums), which corresponds to the Forum model. This is where I would start looking in order to migrate to another equivalent library!
