Migrating MYSQL product db from another shopping cart into WP eStore

[gilbertocintron]

First let me say, that I have two registered license of WP-eStore. One is being used on http://www.viralassociates.com, the other was used on http://www.themoneyisinyourfanpage.com, you guys did the installation for me.

Now, I have want to transfer the license from themoneyisinyourfanpage, a new site, yosoyexpressions.com. It currently has a different shopping cart on it and I want to transfer the db into wp-estore since it is so much better, and easy to use. how would I go about doing that? I supposed I can convert it into a cvs file and upload it like that, but I’m sure there is an easier way. would appreciate some guidance.

Thank you.

The recommended way to migrate to eStore is via CSV importing.

The reason is that you need to be “in the loop” to monitor and control what is going into your database. This is important because not all fields from your existing database may be supported by eStore.

Thank you very much WZP. Do you know of a free tool from converting MSQL to CVS? I will also search the net for such tool.

Thanks again.

Use the export tab in phpMyAdmin. This video might help:
