Generate C# code for linked page materialization by creating ContentItemDirectorBase extension classes that override DirectLinkedNode(). This enforces explicit directives to either Materialize, Drop, or StoreReferenceInAncestor for controlled reference mapping during KX13 to XbyK migration.

Page-to-widget conversion is handled by generating ContentItemDirectorBase extension code that overrides the Direct() method. This applies specific migration strategies to transform pages into widgets within your Migration.Tool.Extensions project.

Prevent silent duplication of linked pages by ensuring explicit directives are generated in your ContentItemDirectorBase extensions. The tool reads your migration plan for explicit handling instructions and only queries the source database when the plan is silent on the matter.

Yes, the generated content migration director code supports conditional drop logic based on node paths and class identifiers. This allows you to automatically drop utility pages and apply template overrides during the Xperience by Kentico migration process.

Implement child page linking and template overrides by generating ready-to-use C# classes that override the Direct() method. These extensions apply the required migration strategies directly within the Migration.Tool.Extensions project for your content items.

You need to compile the generated ContentItemDirectorBase extension code within the Migration.Tool.Extensions project. The generated C# code uses only ContentItemDirectorBase extension points and requires compilation verification to ensure correct per-page migration behavior.
