PHPNuke 7.8 to RN v2.20.00?

Worker Joined: Oct 18, 2005 Posts: 127 Location: NYC

Hey Raven People!

I am runing RN 2.20.00 on a test site, tested the modules I need to add for my other sites that are currently running PHPNuke 7.8 and they run fine. I have no problem installing them to RN 2.20.00.

My concern when trying to convert my 2 PHPNuke 7.8 websites to RN 2.20.00 is converting the database Confused

Can it be done? What's the best way for me to do this? Could I test the conversion first on my test site so I don't 'blow up' my active sites? Shocked

Thank You so much!

JoAnne

JoAnne, there are actually steps right in the Only registered users can see links on this board! Get registered or login! manual to help you with this. Go to the Upgrading page, but read the steps for "From Other Versions of PHP-Nuke ". Wink

So am I!

Adding to Montego's advice, what I normally do for clients when faced with your situation is assume it works by making a full copy of the database and point my RN installation to the copy. That will give me a first blush go/nogo and will easily show what tables are at issue. Try it, you might like it Wink

Somehow I don't think men go through the same blonde stereotyping that woman do Wink

- I have them often but you are right - the stereotyping is definitely unbalanced toward women. No doubt that a man started the rumors Wink
