Hi all,
I've got a longstanding Zen Cart shop (v1.5.5d) that has been looked after by a number of developers over the years.
With that, it has lots of bespoke code, unused plugins/code, scattered files on the FTP etc.
What I'm proposing to do is:
- begin with a clean installation of Zen Cart (v1.5.5e)
- import a new theme (I've purchased)
- import the database from the existing site to the new site
- import all imagery from existing site to the new site
In doing it this way I hope to clear up the FTP so we've only got what is needed, naturally installing any required plugins from the old site (only as needed though).
I'm a little worried about just importing the existing database (as that likely has superfluous tables), is there a way to only import customers, orders, categories and products?
Also, is there a good way to build the site then simply sync the new orders, customers, product changes etc. Or would I have to get those tables one final time as it were?
Any advice on what I'm looking to do would be appreciated, please.
Many thanks,
Stu
