Merging two databases

[trenchteam]

I am attempting to merge two databases into one site. Is this possible?  I would like to keep the categories of one site, but add the members and posts from the other into it.   HOw can I do this?

The Members are easy, you just backup the old smf_members table, and put it back into your new database. Posts, however, are not that easy, becuase they and the categories they are in co-incide, that is, if the categories of the two forums aren't the same, your posts would go somewhere else then where you intended.

Hope this helps,
Christian ;-)

Currently, merging is not, strictly speaking, easily possible.... sorry.

Ok.. Sounds good man. Thanks.  I can use MY PHP admin right? just that table and  add it to the database I want to add to?
