DB Transfer - new site structure

[FoXX318]

This is both DB and phpbb forum related, so I tossed a coin and here it is.

I understand that transfering phpbb DB from one persons web site hosting to another is do-able and depending on the versions of MySQL Server DB between sender and reciever, it is easy or slightly harder.

My question is this - If I transfer the DB to my website hosting, does my Bulletin Board take on the Board Structure of the old site, in other words if I leave my phpbb empty but installed, will I see a replica of the old web site hosting once DB transfer has taken place..

Hi Chris,

Yes, if you backup the database from the old web site hosting & restore it into the new one, the Board Structure & all other settings remain the same exactly as they were earlier. You'd get a full fledged replica of the old web site hosting on the new [blank] one Let us know if you want us to do that for you..
