That site looks like it was made with OSCommerce with the STS contribution. I'm not sure how to do it in Xoops, (newbie to Xoops), but there used to be a module here at XOOPS that was ported to handle OSCommerce. You might try a module search for that module. I tried it once on an earlier version of XOOPS and it seemed okay, back then. I guess for the front page layout, that would all be controlled by your XOOPS theme.

Hope that helps.

I couldn't find an answer to this, I hope you can help.

I'm a newbie. I've built a couple of XOOPS sites and I need to move them to a new server and I'm not having any good luck. I hope someone can point me in the right direction.

1. The old server was PHP4 and the new server is PHP5. Not sure if this makes a difference. Also, later version of MySQL.

2. I've edited the mainfile.php with the right params for the new server.

3. I'm using phpMyAdmin to import the old site database.

4. The database news, topics and sections content get whacked and the data gets cut out.

I'm having to do new installs of XOOPS and modules, and then open the old database in a text editor to try cut and paste to restore the old site on a new server. Basically, building a new XOOPS site to replace the old one. (Very time consuming).

Does anyone have any tips or suggestions -- on what I need to do, or what I might not be doing -- to successfully move one XOOPS site from one server to a different server?

Thanks much for any info!!!
