Uninstalling impossible, alle fields empty: How to revert to a single language site

[jnachtigall]

I use raptus.multilanguagefields and raptus.multilanguageplone. However, I would like to deinstall it, but then all fields except the id are suddenly empty. I would have assumed that the fields would be filled by the default language (in my case german).

How can one revert a raptus.multilanguagefields and raptus.multilanguageplone installation? I am happy to get a single language site back afterwards. I looked at the migrate script - there is an original language in there:

original = field.get(obj, lang='original')

Would it be the way to go and write something like a revert_migration script using this original language? Or what else would be the best approach to revert an installation?

No ideas? Would only a complete reimport of all content be an opportunity?

Just a quick hint on this would be highly appreciated.

Hi, you could try to write a revert_migration script like you've described above, but I can't guarantee that it will work. @skaeser is the original author of the package, he might have a better idea.

A revert_migration script would be the only way back.. doing so, should not be too hard. I would start by copying the migrate script.. note that you need atleast raptus.multilanguagefields in place to do so..
