Hi,
we're rebuilding our site from scratch in Joomla 4 and want to know if we can export the os services booking configuration from our current site and imported into the new one. This would save a lot of time.

Thanks,

Hi,
You can follow below steps to export data from old site to new site:
1. Using PHPMyAdmin to export all OS Services Booking tables of old version to .sql file. The OS Services Booking DB table will have the prefix (#__app_sch...). For example: jos_app_sch_employee.
2. Import modified .sql file into new Joomla database site. Because in .sql file, you add option "Drop tables if exists", so even in new site, you already installed OS Services Booking. You won't have any issue in this step.
3. Re-install new OS Services Booking version in new site.
4. Copy directory: Root > Images > osservicesbooking from old site to new site.
Thanks
Dam

Just checking if you've implemented an easier way to do this from within the Joomla component? We also use Covert Forms and they have a simple 'Import' and 'export' option for all of their forms. This would help a lot of people moving to Joomla 4

Thanks,
Stu

Hi Stuart,
Unfortunately, we don't have that function in Backend of OS Services Booking, you still need to migrate data manually.
Thanks
