Shared mySQL database - can you copy the existing one? - ajerazzor - 2012-04-26 03:06

I want to set this up and have done all the pre-setup stuff short of modding the advancedsettings.xml - my question is I have been using a local database and it is all set up nicely - can I copy this to the "new" mySQL database, or is it a full rebuild?

Thanks

Export your local database and then update your advancedsettings to point to the new MySQL database. Import into your new database.

Thanks for your help!
