I have a site which I need to make an exact copy of.
It has 200 pages and I don't fancy typing them all out again.
Where are the artilces stored? and how do I copy them?
I tried using the restore/backup but my version of phpMyAdmin is 2.6.4-pl2
Any ideas? Willing to pay.

Hi sarcasticdave,
please don´t make double posts.
The complete site are stored at the database.
1. Make a copy of all files and directories.
2. Move them to the new dir or webspace.
3. Setup the correct permissons for certain files and folders. (
http://www.phpwcms-docu.de/installation_en.phtml)
4. Edit the config/phpwcms/conf.inc.php, conf.template_default.php and (if using) the .htaccess.
5. If you are using new webspace: Make an export of your database via phphMyAdmin -> import your db via phphMyAdmin to the new database.
Thats all.
Gruß Knut

If you choose the query window... the tab is named Import files.
If you click on the database view, the SQL tab has the same prompt "Or Location of the textfile :"
