Hi,

I am trying to get nuke_users from 7.5 unpatched to new 7.6 ravennuke but it seems that the old 7.5 has 67 fields and the new one only 64.

Is there anyway to bring this across? I'm not an expert at this.

Thanks in advance for the help!!

You must either add the 3 extra fields to the new users table or drop the 3 extra fields from the old user's table.

i got around this by backing up the tables I needed the info from first.. then I copied the upgrade75-76.php file into the webroot and running it to upgrade the tables. then i dumped the data to a seperate sql and installed the RavenNuke distro, using phpMyAdmin I then copied/pasted the user db INSERTS into the new user table without a single glitch. same with the nuke_authors db and all the nuke_bb* tables.. hell most of the entire old db copied over without a problem. I wsa back up and running within the hour.
