I could not do that as my current version is out of date and won't update. I've made a number of different attempts to update it using different methods. Some give error messages, that were forwarded to AbanteCart. Some have trashed the website but I have complete backups.
I've managed to install 1.2.8 and imported the backup but found a very odd looking site. I then found that the template I was using was NOT transferred. When I manually copied it to the template folder and selected it, it appears to be a lot closer to done.
One new problem that you may be able to help with? Even though I imported without demo products, 1.2.8 does assign cosmetic product images on the home page and I think, elsewhere. I've unattached this images, (4.jpg being the worst offender) and then attempted to delete. They don't.
Any ideas, when even a manual delete via ftp doesn't work?
