Moving away from VB3

MtnDewMan · February 18th, 2005, 11:32 PM

I am moving my photopost gallery onto a different server and it won't have VB3. I currently have over 3000 users in the VB user table. I want to move all of these users into the photopost internal registration table.

Can someone tell me how to go about doing this?

Thanks

Well does your current server allow external mysql connections? Anotherwards anything other than localhost. If so you can still connect to that database from a different server.

Otherwise you would need to write a script to import the info from the vb users table into Photopost user table

I am not a script writer unfortunately. So basically it sounds very difficult?

this is not the first time a vB -> PP was required.. maybe it's time for omegatron to release one...

LOL Actually Nexia his request would be a first one.

Usually people ask about importing Photopost users to VB not the other way around.

As far as releasing free hacks I release simple ones and done so on Photopostdev. In fact the upload limit per day hack I did is now standard in Photopost.

Ones that I can make money off obviously do not get released for good reasons
