Hello Bruno,

Sorry for the late reply. Yes this is possible. Just import the EasyBlog tables ( #__easyblog_xxxx ) from your J2.5 installation to the J3.2 installation and install the latest EasyBlog Hope this helps.

Thanks!

Hi Adelene, Nice, so It is possible? Do you have any link to instructions or tutorial on how to do that?
I need do this "import the EasyBlog tables" in phpmyadmin? Or this process can be done 100% in Easyblog Config panel?
Also... I need to know If I really need to import this Tables before the Easyblog Installation.

Hello Bruno,

Sorry for the late reply. You will have to do it in the phpMyAdmin. Please check out the short guide below,

To migrate from Joomla 2.5 to Joomla 3.2, 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 file and save it on your desktop.
4. If your new site's database prefix also uses jos_ , 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 #__ 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.

Thanks!

OK I Get it, I will do it here by myself, but I guess I need one extra help in the Step 4.
I already has the .sql opened in Dreamweaver to do the Find and Replace operation,
So I need to understand better this point.

In PHPmyAdmin I found in my New and Clean J3.2 DataBase this "c1eqo_" Database Tables Prefix.
So I Believe you are talking about this prefix, right?

Now I need to understand what I need to replace. And Replace for what? EasyBlog prefix?

thanks

Hello Bruno,

Sorry for the late reply. Actually replacing th e prefix is very simple. You can open the file in a text editor (any) and then use the text's editor serach and replace function. First identify your J2.5 site's prefix. say the tables are named something like

vg5tg_easublog_oauth

this means the "vg5tg_" is the prefix. Then you can use the search for all the "vg5tg_" in the file and replace it with "c1eqo_". Then you can safely import the file in your J3.2 database Hope this helps.

Thanks!
