Is it possible to migrate easyblog from a joomla 1.5 to 2.5.20?
Hello Stephan Boehringer,

Yes, that was possible to do that

Ideally, it's best that you create an export dump through phpmyadmin and export the tables over. Here's the general guideline that you could use it.

*Backup your data first before perform migration

1. Open up PHPMyAdmin tool that is provided by your hosting provider and open up your current site's database.
2. Make a sql dump for all the tables that has the prefix of #__easyblog_*
3. Download the .sql file and save it on your desktop.
4. If your new site's database prefix also uses the same prefix , then you can skip this part. However, if you are using a different database prefix, you'll need to edit the .sql file that you've just downloaded, and do a search and replace of jos_ with your new database prefix.
5. Open your PHPMyAdmin and this time, open up your new site's database.
6. You should see an import link at the top. Click on that, and click on browse. Select the .sql file and click the run import button.
Note : 7. Install the latest EasyBlog on your new site Joomla 2.5

**migrate additional - if your blog post have including the image file, you have to do this step as well.
That was to copy over the image and media files associated with EasyBlog (e.g. the "/images/easyblog_avatar", "/images/easyblog_images", "/images/easyblog_shared", and the "/media/com_easyblog" folders and all of their contents).

Hope this help.

Hello Stephan Boehringer,

If you would like to update the user from this table #__easyblog_post, you can use this sql queries


// set mean which id you want to update to
// where mean which id you would like to change
// #__ <- change to your table prefix
update `#__easyblog_post` set `created_by`=245 where `created_by`=238;


If you need further assistance, please provide us with your Joomla backend, phpmyadmin and FTP access so we can help you update on this.
