import categories from phpmyadmin to INDEXU 5.2.0

[braay]

Hi Folks

Can anyone help me on how to import categories from phpmyadmin to INDEXU 5.2.0, i tried importing from both the admin control panel and myphpadmin but category names dont show up, i know its all in different cells and tables, but is there any quicker way to do this than inputing them individualy???

Any help would be great
Thanks

If you have your cats in a text file (like tab delimited) then you can import them via phpmyadmin, if thats what you mean?

If you use another link directory script before want to import into indexu, you can create a helpdesk ticket. We'd be happy to help you migrating to indexu.

It's free.

i export them from phpmyadmin, then import them to INDEXU 5.2.0, but the names of the category's dont show, i know its the cells and tables that are different, but is there a quicker way to do this instead of inserting them individualy

You must rearrange the column in proper format for indexu 5.2.0

or you can specify the columns with commas, it will skip the columns that you dont specify.

Did you get the categories from another links script? Or did you just use phpmyadmin to design them?

How many categories do you have? If its not to many, I dont mind helping out by switching them over to indexu format,

I used phpmyadmin to export the cats in both the old database and indexu, then i started to drop them into a tab delimited file and i should be able to import them with no probs, but thank you for your help anyways ezy
