Episode #20 of the 'Migrations How-To' series from Tag1 Consulting, "Migrating Your Data from D7 to D10: Migrating field formatter settings," written by Mauricio Dinarte, Senior Software Engineer, focuses on migrating field formatter settings during a Drupal 7 to Drupal 10 migration. Following earlier steps like migrating view modes and field groups, this process is critical for ensuring a functional Drupal 10 site. It explains how to copy and modify the upgrade_d7_field_formatter_settings.yml file, rebuild caches, and run the migration using drush commands.

Key modifications include removing unnecessary keys, adding migration tags, and ensuring dependencies are updated. Additionally, the Migrate Skip Fields module is used to manage content model changes. The article also highlights the need for manual review of migrated configurations, such as custom date formats and formatter settings.

Future topics will cover migrating media types, roles, permissions, and more to finalize the configuration migration process.
