    In progress Moving to another server?

    Post by Devastating May 20th 2013, 12:15 am

    Is there any possible way I can move all my sites content to another server .I was thinking of paying for a private host.
    If there is a way how do I go about it?
    I have a few sites hosted with you its just one I wish to move.

    Thanks for any replies. Very Happy

    You cannot do this as you don't have access to the forumotion database. So this isn't possible.

    Yeah there is nothing you can go through at forumotion to do this because forumotion do not offer any data transfers. What i usually suggest to members like yourself that are moving to a new host is to. Make an announcement on your forum that you are moving to a new host, and that you will give all members a month or so to copy any of their post from the forum over to the new site before it is officially closed. Oh you may want to send out a couple mass emails as well.
