How can I migrate blogs from Joomla 2.5 to Joomla 3?
Hello Jeanette,

To migrate from Joomla 2.5 to Joomla 3.0, here's the steps that you need to perform.

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.txt file and save it on your desktop.
4. If your new site's database prefix also uses #__ , then you can skip this part. However, if you are using a different database prefix, you'll need to edit the SQL.txt file that you've just downloaded, and do a search and replace of #__ 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.
7. Install the latest EasyBlog on your new site
8. Enjoy blogging! If you have any problems at this point, drop us an email and we'll take a look at this.

Hope this helps.

Thank you. It is nearly all there now.
I do get on Home & Categories pages:
WARNING

JUser: :_load: Unable to load user with ID: 218

JUser: :_load: Unable to load user with ID: 67

JUser: :_load: Unable to load user with ID: 72

How can I get rid of this?

Hello Jeanette,

Is it possible for you to provide us with the back end and FTP access to your site to check on this issue?

No need now thanks. I solved the Warning Issue by making sure that there were no clashing user-ids in database.
You give excellent support. Thankyou.
It would be nice if EasyBlog had an Export/Import feature.
