I've recently upgraded from EE1 to EE2. I had some issues with upgrading the add-ons which you can see here, but I now have a working cpanel that I am able to log into, but on the frontend I am getting this error:

Error

Unable to load requested field type file:  ft.ftype_id_2.php.

Confirm the fieldtype file is located in the expressionengine/third_party/ directory

I have done a search for ftype_id_2 in my database and it returned 3 results from the exp_channel_fields table. On the EE1 version of the site these are all FreeForm fields "FF Checkbox Group"

How should I proceed to get these fields across from EE1 to EE2?

  • Have you upgraded all the EE add-ons to their EE2 counterparts - especially Freeform? Add-ons (including Fieldtypes) are held in a different location from the EE1 versions. – Peter Lewis Nov 2 '14 at 14:43
  • FF is shorthand for FieldFrame, the framework built by Brandon Kelly (Pixel & Tonic) to enable custom fieldtypes in EE1. It's not related to Freeform, which never had a custom channel entry fieldtype in EE1. – Solspace Nov 3 '14 at 2:27

FieldFrame doesn't exist anymore. It was replaced by Pixel & Tonic Matrix.

There's some update instructions on their website.
