moving mods&hacks: test-server to real deal
Hi I was wondering if there is a way to move all mods & hacks from the test-server to the actual server I'll be running the forum on.
For instance I know I can manually download the plugins, but is there a quicker way? The same go's for any modified templates, or do they come with the style? For example; If I would place a back-up of my test-server dbase and all the files to the real server and then replace it with a back-up of the real forum, would that do the trick? |

why can't you just move you whole test board and then make it live... Seeing as thats what you basically want to do. If you do that then just make sure you have the location for where it's going to be and the cookies will still work. Otherwise you'll run into a few problems..

I thought about your sugestion, but I have a few questions about it.
I'm currently running version 2.3, so I need to upgrade the old database before I can implement it in the new forum. But when I move the test dbase and forum and then implement the old (converted) database, do I not lose hacks/mods? This is what I did (tested); I upgraded my current forum & dbase. Then I copied all the files from my testforum to the upgraded version. However it's not showing all the hacks&mods I installed. (Is this due to the fact that they are not registered in the dbase?) I hope I make any sense |

hmm, well, Most of the hacks probably won't be compatible wiht vb3.5.4 so you 'll have to get rid of them and then use impex to import the posts/users/threads/froums etc.etc. across

Sorry, you misunderstand. I dont need the old hacks anymore, just the new ones.
The upgrading went fine, all the users & posts were transfered correctly so thats not the problem. |

Either that or remove the remnants of the old ones.
