Im finalizing a migration to j2.5 and one of the last peices is reintegrating JFBconnect.

I have access to phpmyadmin.

What is the proper method to migrate from j1.5 to 2.5, without losing things like the user map?

Having a simple documented procedure will probably be the factor for renewal.

Aaron,
If you're doing a real migration where you've simply upgraded your existing site to Joomla 2.5, leaving the tables from the Joomla 1.5 site intact, there isn't anything to do. Simply install the new version of JFBConnect for Joomla 2.5 and your configuration will automatically be detected and used for the new site.

Hope that helps, but if you have more specific questions on what to do, we can always help you in the process.

Thanks,
Alex

i migrated using jupgrade. so the new site has a new database prefix. Can i just recreate and populate the tables with the new prefix? if so what tables must be migrated?

I've never used jUpgrade, so I don't know what it does about tables that it's not built to migrate. However, yes, you simply need to get the tables jos_jfbconnect_xyz tables from the old site into the database for the new site with the proper prefix. Once there, you can simply install the 2.5 version of JFBConnect and it will recognize the data immediately.

Hope that helps,
Alex
