boardernerd228 Posted July 1, 2007 Posted July 1, 2007 Hi. I have a website with a full catalog of products. I'm considering starting a new website and putting all of the same exact products from Site A to Site B(the new site). Is there an easy way that I could do this without having to manually go in and re-create each individual product? I know there must be a way to do this, but I'm not sure how. Help would be great! Thanks.
Dods Posted July 1, 2007 Posted July 1, 2007 On the admin panel, Tools>Database Backup Click "Backup" and then click the "Download only (do not store server side)*" box. Save the file somewhere then open it and find the first line that starts: insert into products There will be a lot of lines which start with these words (each line represents one product). If you copy all of those lines, then execute them in your new websites database.
Guest Posted July 1, 2007 Posted July 1, 2007 Assuming Site A is an OSC store, then Dod's got the answer. However, if Store A is not an OSC store, then using the Easypopulae contrib on store B may be the way to go, maybe.

However, if Store A is not an OSC store, then using the Easypopulae contrib on store B may be the way to go, maybe. Assuming it's from one OSC store to another...I'm thinking of doing this as well. Wouldn't it be best to duplicate all the files from one server to another and then use phpMyAdmin to download the full SQL and then insert this into the new phpMyAdmin? Would that be the best way to preserve all of the contribs already installed...and the products? We see our customers as invited guests to a party, and we are the hosts.
