HELP - Step by Step IMPORT from Old to New - DB - BULK Import

[admin]

Easy way is to upgrade 2.6 installation. Then copy the changes you made in 2.7, to the upgraded sites.

Okay, but if I upgrade the existing version 2.6 I'd need to know what will change during the upgrade? Will our css style change with the upgrade? Will we lose our translated language settings? We have a 4 x 4 flash block on our start page. Will the upgrade have an effect on the start page i.e. will we lose this flash block? Those are things that I'd need to know in order to determine if it's even possible for me to do such an upgrade.

Thanks a lot. I'd really appreciate getting an answer to these questions. Have a great day.

You will lose these changes. After upgrade, site will look like default vshare 2.7 installation. You need to make all changes again. Better do the changes on different vshare installation, then copy the changes to live after upgrade done.

This will not work. It will need some changes to get it back. It won't be much difficult.
