Hey guys,

I want to know if there is a way to export the custom profiles from a site and import to another site. That is possible? If it is a hard task I will just make them all again in the new site, but are 3 options of registration with a lot of diferent custom profiles on each :S

Thanks for your time guys.

Regards,
Alejandro.
Hi,

It is possible but there are a few foreign key that you need to look out for.

The main table is at #__social_fields, but it ties to other table's key such as #__social_apps, #__social_profiles, and all the #__social_fields_* tables.

Hey Jason,

Thanks for your fast answer

There is no way to export and Import it manually using the DB or something like that?

Hey,

Nice to know. So it is just export these, then import in the correct place at the new DB at all?

Thanks.

Hi,

This is because when you import it over to a new database, the foreign key mapping for each connected table might be different. This part is tricky and hence we will have a proper feature to do this in the future.
