Viktor Levytskyi Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 (edited) Hello, Tried to do a test migration from vb4. As a result, attachments were not transferred 🤥 VB4:  forum - mysite.com/forum, blog - mysite.com/blog, articles - mysite.com IPS Community Suite 4.5.3: test.mysite.com Subdomain and main domain - on the same server. Questions: 1. How to specify path to Gallery Images? I tried to copy "mysite.com/forum/Uploads" to "test.mysite,com/Uploads2" and specify "/Uploads2", but it does not work, albums are empty. 2. How to specify path to forum attachments? There are no such settings in the migrator. I would be grateful for your help.

Morrigan Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 Now when you do a migration there is more to it then just simply getting the files to the right place. IPS has to rebuild data, this includes attachment data etc. If all of your settings are correct then when the migration happens it still has to rebuild everything. I can't verify what you have there but if the settings are all correct then it should migrate them just fine. I unfortunately don't know how VB is setup but normally uploads (unless your forum structure differs from default) is mysite.com/uploads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution Viktor Levytskyi Posted October 11, 2020 Author Solution Share Posted October 11, 2020 Morrigan, thank you for help. Everything is working fine now. I added full path "/home/{username}/web/{sitename}/public_html/uploads2" instead of relative path "/uploads2" and migrator correctly moved all attachments.
