    Default import current links?

    Any possible way if I purchase this script to import a database of current links from another script I'm currently using?

    If so, how would I do it?

    You can do it manually by using the following file which shows you how the indexu database is organized

    Yes, but won't the database migration bring all this over also? I want to bring over my current database including categories and links.

    There is no database import feature that can import from any script out there. IndexU can import files written in a few specific formats.

    You don't need a script. Just go to phpMyAdmin and open the files to see the file structure and then use Excel to reorder your data into those columns and then import them as Tab Delimited files. Bruce did an excellent database key that tells you what the columns are and what they do. I used that to merge over many sets of data into one Categories File and one Links File and uploaded it. BE SURE TO BACK-UP your files before doing any of this.
    You might create a sample link then do an export as an Excel CSV of the category file and the link file from phpMyAdmin to see where the data is to model your input.

    I can do a phpmydirectory database migration to IndexU for $30. If it's not phpmydirectory then the cost could be up to $90
