I just upgraded a Drupal 6 site to Drupal 7
upgraded drupal core -> no problem in database
upgraded ctools + panels -> no problem in database
migrated fields -> no problems (i think)
but now when i go to the Node template all my added CCK fields say "deleted missing content type content_field"
"Missing content type - This pane's content type is either missing or has been deleted. This pane will not render."
but when i go to admin/structure/types all my content types are there, all fields were migrated and i even can change the nodes. so why does ctools not find it?

do I really have to re-create all templates from scratch? or did i do something wrong?

Because of the transition from CCK to Field API, unfortunately the locations of all the fields changed and Panels has no idea where to find them. While you don't have to recreate everything, you do have to redo all CCK panes. I'm sorry about this, but there's nothing I can do; the information just isn't available. Views has the same problem.

as always: thanks for your quick response - you rock! :)
may i ask one more thing? would it be theoretically possible to add a selection option for the missing fields? so that the missing pane asks: "please select the correct field" and then one could select the field and the options stay intact?

if it's not too expensive, i might sponsor this because this would be a real timesaver...

That would be unfortunately much more difficult than it sounds.
