z.c 1.5.5a, many mods
MY database originated in zc 1.3.7 I've upgraded/updated fairly regularly along the way. Some old, no longer used mods had uninstall scripts and if so I used those. Some did not. Some templates I've tried added things that lingered. I've tried to manually tidy up the db a few times via phpMyAdmin. Screwed up a few times but always backed up first ;o)
I've been building a new file set, reinstalling all the mods I continue to use, and I want to do a good cleaning on my db as well. The db still works and I've been able to identify and correct the few instances where a lingering old mod mucked up a new mod.
I've recently installed and played with Easy Populate 4.0.35 on my test site and have more or less got the hang of it.
I have a few hundred products, not thousands. I plan to alter my categoies a little to facilitate better filtering.
Am I better to start with a clean db and import my categories and products, or should I keep old database and continue tidy up work ongoing?
