Copying categories, making some changes...

[dpakman91]

I have 3 directories currently with this script, and i am setting up a new one.

I have made several small changes over the past months to my exisiting directories, and i want to have the new one set up exactly the same...but i don't remember exactly what lal the changes were. is there any way to just copy over some files and have everything be set up the same?

also, i want to add my category list from my current directories to my new one without manually adding them in...how can i do this?

Well why don't you just literally copy all the files and folders from the old directory to the new thus overwriting the default folders in the new? That way you'll get all the changes you made in the old.

Im not that knowledgable but I can offer advice about what i would do - if you are using PHPmyAdmin to administer your databases.

Im presuming you have installed a new PHPLD for your new directory. So you would have a PLD_CATEGORY table in this database. If you want the same categories as in your current populated directory then why not copy the data from the PLD_CATEGORY of the old table to the new. Save/Export the old PLD_CATEGORY to a file then import info from this file to the new PLD_CATEGORY. The process is just the same as making a back up then restoring the back up when you f*up, except you're restoring the back up in a different database.

I hope this helps.

If anybody thinks they know better then please...
