Database

[JakeDuncan™]

Hey guys -

Is it possible to move registered users into another database?

[flapjack]

do you mean another database on the same server, another server, or maybe different prefix within same database?

[JakeDuncan™]

Im using 000webhost - I want to get the users from my old database and add them to the new 1 - They are both same server yes

[flapjack]

so you want another instance of SMF and keep ONLY the registered users? that seems doable, although I haven't tried it yet. you will need access to phpMyAdmin or other similar software though

Unfortunately it's not that simple. Member data is stored in a variety of places - the members table, attachments (for their avatar) plus there's associations to the membergroups and permissions tables...

What exactly are you trying to do?

[JakeDuncan™]

Basicly - i still have my Database for AOW - The last site - The one that wasnt letting me install packages, I have just Re-Installed SMF and its now working (Thank God) lol and i want the registered users from the old one onto this one?

[Arantor]

Do you want posts etc too?

[flapjack]

I would say, move database and then remove unneeded stuff, such as posts, etc.

[JakeDuncan™]

THat would help. Keeping the posts.

so you are now talking about migration of your forum.
see here: How do I move my SMF forum to a different host?

I have successfully completed it all working and the error with the install i was having before, Was an error in the sorces directory in the old script _ nothing to do with the host or the DB 

thankyou Guys
