Hello,

Could you let me know if there is an easy way to merge two stores into one. Is it possible to merge the two databases and images easily and quickly?

Many thanks,

Edd

I suppose you could do a mySQL database dump (Making sure you don't select the drop tables if they exist). Then append the dump to the second database. Make backups first before you try anything.

Biggest problem would be reconciling the 2 category tables I think. You should probably modify your categories of one to match the other before you do this. Then I think it should work.

You're going to have issues with duplicate product and category IDs which are, of course, not allowed. So if you get your two inventory tables merged, you'll then have to rebuild the cats_idx table and the set the category counts correctly. The fixCatCount mod at CubeCart.org can help with the two latter issues though.

If you can't seem to get it straightened out, there are several of us who have the CC & DB experience to merge the two stores. If you have a look at cubecart.org, you should be able to find a programmer who can do this for you.
