Hello peoples. I am going to change to a different webhost and I am wondering how I transfer my VB to it.
Oh, and when I download a style it downloads the Replacement set and the Template set right? So then if all of my styles have the same template set and I upload them what will happen? Will I end up with a bunch of template sets with the same name? |

The database contains all the styles, including replacement and template sets. Hence when you backup and restore the database, the styles will be included automatically. |
I went there, and none of that made any sense. Since I am still working on my board, and it hasn't been released yet, maybe it might be better to just download the styles, and have the staff members re-register. There aren't any posts that I really need.

hello, still need help.

Sorry, but if that link made no sense than nothing I would say would make any sense either.

1a.
Make a backup from your AdminCP and download it. Make sure the backup includes everything. or 1b. Use phpMyAdmin to do a dump of the db you use for vBulletin and save it to your computer. 2. Transfer/reupload your vb files to your new server. 3. Use phpMyAdmin and upload your backup/dump file and evrything will be reinserted for you. No need to rerun vb setup either. Sorry if this is vague, but I found it simple when I did for a friend. Good luck. (This is kind of easier if your not familiar w/ Telnet or SSH) |
Be careful though. Making backups and restoring with phpMyAdmin is notoriously unreliable.
|
Just don't use phpMyAdmin, unless your backup is like a couple of 100k's (and it's not...).
