import V2.7.9 data into V5.5.6

User moon_1262 2025-02-07 18:36:09

Hi,

I just installed a brand new Joomla 5.2.3 website and would like to import data from ListManager 2.7.9 from a 3.10.12 Joomla website into List Manager 5.5.6. inside this Joomla 5.2.3 website. Is there any simple (or not so simple maybe) way to do that ?

Thanks,

Hi,
you can find instructions on how to migrate from a Joomla 3 configuration to the new Joomla 4/5 version here:

https://www.moonsoft.es/tutorial/entry/13-list-manager-jooomla-4/listmanager-migration-joomla3-joomla4

However, this solution needs the original tables from your listmanager 2.7.9 to be present at your database in order to launch the automatic process that create the tables and extract data

If you want to go for this solution, you will need to have/move your former LM db tables to your new installation and then follow the instructions, these tables are:

#__listmanager_access
#__listmanager_acl
#__listmanager_field
#__listmanager_field_multivalue
#__listmanager_field_view
#__listmanager_listing
#__listmanager_rate
#__listmanager_search
#__listmanager_values
#__listmanager_view

Another option would be to export your list data into csv format, then create manually the new table

and import the csv data using the backend options
