Title: Migration of working AbanteCart to newer version of AbanteCart on new host
Post by: alevene on August 27, 2016, 07:57:37 AM

I note that AbanteCart includes a conversion tool to move other shopping carts to AbanteCart. How about a similar tool to move a working AbanteCart v x.x.x to another host. In other words, install the latest AbanteCart on another host and run the setup. Then use the tool to move all of the files, data, images, templates, etc. to the new host so that the new cart is identical to the old, plus installed on the latest version of the software.

Is this difficult?

Hi Alevene

I have found the migration processes very easy. I have done it several times. Please see my sticky thread:

Treat the test site in my steps as yourr new host.

Let me know if you have any questions.
