Moving Thyme to Another Server Print

Moving Thyme to another server works like most applications.

  1. Download Thyme from the source server.
  2. Upload Thyme to the target server.
  3. Export Thyme's database from the source server using phpMyAdmin or a similar tool. Most web hosting providers provide phpMyAdmin in your web hosting control panel.
  4. Import Thyme's database in the target server using phpMyAdmin or a similar tool. Take care to note the new database settings: database name, user name, password, host, and port. In some cases, host and port are not used.
  5. Edit include/config.php in Thyme's folder to reflect the new path and database settings
  6. In some cases, moving Thyme turns off public access. If this is the case for you: navigate to Admin -> Users -> Public Access and click on Enable

If your URL is changing, use the following additional steps:

  1. Contact us to request a license key for the new URL. Please include the FULL URL to Thyme.
  2. In Thyme, navigate to Admin -> Site Settings and enter your new license key.

If you are using an external auth module for Thyme, please use the following additional steps:

  1. Edit modules/auth/auth.php to reflect the new path of the external auth source (Joomla!, phpBB2, WordPress etc..)
