Hi there !

Ive got a real tough question for you before i renew my subscription and get the latest version.. Is there a way to migrate JFBConnect (user map with Total Connected Users: 416 ) v4.3.4 to a new J2.5 / VM2.6.10 latest version ?
I will migrate all the users (same IDs) from the old site to the new. So the users from the old site will exist in the new one. So, the question is what i can do about JFBConnect in this case.. ;>

Thanks in advance, Christos.

Christos,
If the user IDs are the same, you'll simply need to copy the #__jfbconnect_user_map table to the new site. However, you'll likely want (or even need) to use the same Facebook App ID and Secret Key on the new site. Facebook is moving to a unique user ID per app, which means that if you copy over the tables to the new site, but use a new App ID / Secret key, the user IDs that Facebook returns on authentication may be different than the ones stored in the database.

I hope that helps, but if you run into any issues, just let me know.

Alex
