I'm upgrading my website and the instructions for upgrade state: Quote:
Move the var folder from your old folder to the new one. Permissions and ownership on this directory must be maintained. I can't seem to find that folder, was this not part of Ver 1? |

Thanks Dave I looked in G3 folders and found folder named "g2 import" will this work? Or maybe the G1 import shows up after installation? Another question, should I use G1's database or create a new one? |

G1 does not use a DB. It uses Serialized php .dat files. @import G1 -> G3: http://codex.gallery2.org/Gallery3:Modules:g1_import Dave |

Thanks again Dave That worked well, well almost It created all the albums but left some empty, it didn't import all the images. Also, is there a way to import themes as well, I'd like to use my old one. |
