Hi every one,
I'm a real newbie. I hosted my organisation's website on micfo for the last two years. We are now trying godaddy because of inconsistent e-mail service.
The problem is however that I have to transfer 4 PHP MySql databases to the new account at godaddy.
I have no clue of the steps that i need to take. The four dbases were installed using fantistico and everything was automated. I don't want to lose the data in the forum, guestbooks and calendar that I already have.
Can you help me?

Do you have access to phpMyAdmin on both hosts? Export from one, import to the other.

Sorry to say it, but you'll probably regret switching to GoDaddy.

micfo should be using Cpanel, so if Godaddy is also using Cpanel(which I don't think so), it'll be really easy to switch.

Use mySQL Front. Open both database, and do a Extra | Transfer.

No Godaddy doesn't have cpanel. It does have phpMyAdmin.
So I export in sql format and then import the text file with sql on the new site right?
That simple?

Basicly yes. Unless (here it comes) database larger is then 8 MB, as most hosting company's leave PHP limit for 8 MB upload. It should say it in PHPMyAdmin on the page where you are doing import.

There is a bit messy work around and it is to manually split exported file into more smaller ones (within 8 MB). Or export fewer tables per database, not reaching 8 MB.

If none of your DB's is over 8 MB, then it is really easy. As said: export on old host and import on new one.

Cheers,
Aleks

Thanks for the help.

I was able to do it.
