importing images to CB gallery from an older website

Hi.

I am rebuilding a Joomla/Community Builder site from scratch. I am using cb gallery on both the new site and the old one. I am porting all the users from the old site to the new one. I have all the images from the old user galleries that I want to port to the new one but I can't figure out how to get the gallery to recognize the files from each user.

any help would be great.

thanks

You need to copy over the database table _comprofiler_plug_profilegallery to your new site. This assumes the User IDs match up on your new site. If they do not then you'll have a huge task of mapping the old rows to the new user ids. You then need to copy over the below folder.

images/comprofiler/plug_profilegallery/

Note each user has a folder inside of the above folder based off their user id. So it's pretty important that their user ids be the same on your new site.

Thanks for getting back to me.

I understand the user ID issue and had already found the directory of images.

My issue is pulling the old data from the database. The old system is Joomla 1.0. I have cbjuice and another plugin for dumping data but neither contain the field I need. can you recommend a plugin or process for getting the fields I need? or is there a way to find out how the field if formatted so that I can just recreate them using the directory data then use cbjuice to put the data in the field?

Thanks

The CB Gallery database table is the the comprofiler_plug_profilegallery table.
You should try and replicate this on your new site taking into account how your userids have changed between sites.

CB Juice cannot help you with this - you should use phpmyadmin instead to import / export this table.
