I am just about ready to go live on the new server. I have been testing with forum data from about a month ago. We have not changed any of the message board files, I did the transfer by following these directions https://www.ubbcentral.com/forums/u...s_UBB_Threads_7_x_Transf.html#Post178189

I assume I can just dump the test data and then import the live data into the new database and all will be good?

Thanks,


Ian

yep, i do it all the time on my dev/production systems smile

usually the mysqldump will include a DROP TABLE, so you don't (normally) even have to dump the DB...

just import and it is like fresh/new smile

Man that works great. I just tried it to refresh the testing copy and worked great, closed the live board did a dump of the database, imported it to the test one and all is great!
