Serendipity Forums

Hi,

I have Serendipity running at one provider, but am currently moving to a different one. I would like to copy over the data base as directly as possible, but there are of course some differences in the hosts, user names, etc. So I was wondering if you could tell me which tables I can move without messing up the data base. I have tried this by hand already, but just got a messed up system, and didn't really know where to start looking.

BTW, why do you provide import modules for several other blog program, but not for Serendipity? The only thing I found was to use RSS import, but that only gave me the last few entries, and no comments ...

Thanks,

Robert

One thing to add, perhaps: It would be great to have just the actual blog contents (and comments), but no information about plugins, etc. I had some trouble installing plugins, so it would be nice not to take any potentially inconsistent plugin information to the new host.

For migration, please read http://www.s9y.org/11.html#A14

Because moving an s9y install is quite easy, we don't offer a s9y import )

If you don't want to copy over plugins, you can change the serendipity_plugin table which holds a list of all used plugins.

Thank you, garvin! I actually looked in the docs, but must have missed that part. I kept getting errors about some file it couldn't find, until I read that sentence about changing the path in the config Now it works, thanks!
