Re: Moving Tiki from one host to another

I guess this is as good a place as any. Easy is in the eye of the beholder, Damian.

On the MigratetoTiki page, either you missed my point or ignored it. The answers that you provide here and there are:
1. DBMS dependent (MySQL centric)
2. Version dependent (Tables change between versions)
3. Tiki dependent (Now which attribute for which field for which table was that?)

My grousing had to do with "Where is the Import/Export button?" Movable Type uses MySQL (or can use Berkley dB). Nevertheless, transporting data from one MT installation to another is done with a handy-dandy, Import/Export button.

MT exports data as an easy-to-edit text file. Granted it is Personal Publishing Software, i.e., a weblog rather than a Swiss Army knife for collaborative content. Still, I would contend that transporting data is much simpler, "I push a button", instead of finding and following the steps presented, augmented, and outdated in this specific post.

The (stupid user) defence rests. rolleyes
