I’ve been running the same SMP for quite a long time, and unfortunately some plugins stop receiving updates over time. So, I sometimes have to replace plugins with alternatives that provide the same functionality.
I’m facing this issue with AdvancedItems, which is no longer being updated. I need to migrate to a different plugin, like EcoItems, but I’m unsure how to do this safely.
Many players on my server already have items that were created using AdvancedItems. This makes it difficult to simply switch plugins, since those existing items would no longer function correctly.
What would be the best way to handle this migration?
