Migrating List Consolidator for Users from SharePoint 2007 to SharePoint 2010
Be sure you have at least the Minimum SharePoint 2007 Product Release (shown in the table below) installed before migrating. If not, upgrade your Bamboo product release before migrating. For more information, see Upgrading your Bamboo Web Part. Also, the target SharePoint 2010 farm requires at least the Minimum SharePoint 2010 product release shown.
IMPORTANT: When migrating from SharePoint 2007 to SharePoint 2010, you MUST select the option to change existing SharePoint sites to use the new user experience. Your Bamboo products will not perform as expected with the old look and feel.

| Issues |
The successful migration of List Consolidator depends on the original configuration of the lists included in the aggregated views:
- If the included lists were configured using a relative path, then then migration will be successful without requiring additional steps.
- If the included lists were using an absolute path, the Web Part will not display any data because the defined lists do not exist.

- Locate and open the list called Bamboo List Consolidator Configuration.
- Modify the value in the QueryXML column for all entries in the list to switch from the absolute URL to a relative URL.
