Manual Transport

If you are looking to transfer your Yaga configuration from one forum installation to the next, it is highly suggested you use the transport tools included on the Yaga settings page. This will dump your configurations, database records, and files into a single archive file that you can then upload to the new installation.

If you were directed here by an error, I have outlined what you should do to get as complete a transport as possible. Keep in mind that transports are not intended to maintain any earned badges, ranks, or reactions between installs.

Export

  1. Backup your database
  2. Dump the GDN_Action, GDN_Badge, and GDN_Rank tables using your favorite mysql tool (e.g. phpMyAdmin)
  3. Save the configurations starting with 'Yaga' in the /conf/config.php file
  4. Download all files in the /uploads/yaga folder

Import

  1. Import the SQL dumps into your new database
  2. Paste the saved configurations into the /conf/config.php file of your new install.
  3. Upload your image files into /uploads/yaga of your new install
  4. Profit!
