Help! I'm moving to a new webhost!
« on: September 30, 2002, 06:37:58 PM »
Hello!

I am going to be moving my domain to a new webhost soon.  How will I reinstall my gallery to keep all of the same settings?  Will I just have to save my files and upload all of them to the new webhost?  Or, what are my other options if available?

Thank you,

DISCLAIMER:
These steps are only my GUESS.  I haven't tried anything here.

Take a backup of all your files using FTP.  Use the admin control panel to take a backup of the database then download this file too.  

After you've moved do a clean install of 4images.  This should set you up with an admin login assuming you've already created a new database.  Upload your backup of 4images, access the admin control panel and restore your database backup file.

Sound about right?
