Hello everyone,

Today I ran into a bandwidth problem and had to switch servers (bandwidth problems are good sometimes, it means people are actually visiting!!!) but anyway, the whole site is based in PHPNuke, and I was wondering what exactly I had to do in order to make sure NOTHING AT ALL gets lost. Do I copy/paste? What about the SQL database?

If anyone can guide me through this, I'll be more than grateful!

Thanks in advance!

best thing to do for the files is to transfer them to your HD and re-upload them to your new site. As for the db's, do an export and add them back to your other site.

in PHPMyAdmin, you'll see a tab with the words EXPORT on it. Click it and it will ask you how you want the files saved. Either in zip format or something else (I can't remember the other choice) lol...
