    We recently had our website overhauled and we purchased the cmap template. When we launched the new site – http://thisweekstjames.com – none of our contacts or categories imported.

    I changed the license from the dev server to the new site. Please advise. do I have to purchase the csv import to get all of our members imported to the new site?

    They are still sitting on the dev site – so all is not lost yet.

    How did you migrate the site. It appears the tables containing the Connections data was not migrated. When moving sites, it is best to use plugins like BackupBuddy or Duplicator because they reliably move all the data when moving a site.

    RE: do I have to purchase the csv import to get all of our members imported to the new site?

    No, you do not need a second license.

    Steven,

    I did use backup buddy – let me wipe it and try again.

    @ Sheila

    It’s been awhile since I migrated a site using BackupBuddy… if there is an option to allow it to create tables that do not exist, enable it.

    Oh, make sure the user you created for the database has create table privileges.

    I did all of that – I’m trying duplicator now.

    I’ve spent hours on this – if we pay $15 for the csv importer will it import all of our data from the dev site?

    If you give me all the required logins, I’ll take a look… it should be straightforward so something must be amiss. The login details can be posted here as a private reply.
