Just upgraded my site to farcry 3 on my dev box, and have noticed
quite a few of my forms, in farcry admin, for custom types and

change to the old (2.3.1 ) type form buttons and generally are not
quite as clean as when on old version. The default forms etc all
seem fine. Any ideas please?
The old code does not really conform to any manageable standard.
We worked to provide functional backward compatability but not too
hard in the design front. Unfortunately you will need to roll up
your sleeves and recode the wrappers for your wizards.
We've just migrated a bunch of our PLPs to the new widgets tags etc.
It's not a fun process... you pretty much gotta just copy the new
core PLP files and add back in any customisations you've made.
Whilst we were at it we managed to refactor out 90% of the PLP files,
so most of our custom types only require an edit.cfm.
I've blogged about the process in the hope that it may help another:
