    I have several directories and was wondering the best way to transfer over the 300+ categories I have on one directory to another. They are both on diffrent hosting accounts, so I was wondering what the easiest way to do this was?

    Any feedback greatly appreciated ;)

    Is there a db? Do an export/import.

    Go to phpmyadmin

    choose your database

    go to export

    click the tbl_categories table

    check the save as file box

    download the file

    select your other database

    go to import

    upload the file

    done:D

    Does the import/export also export the links that are added to the categories or it's just the structure that's transferred?

    :)

    as you only export the categories table, it wont move any links. if you want to move the links too, select tbl_links.
