Hi

I have two db’s in my cpanel …one which I developed and the other a joomla QuickStart package .. I want the QuickStart theme to replace the original site (mine) ..but at the same time keep some of the components of the original site…so, how do I make the new QuickStart template and theme point to my URL and transfer some of the components…

PS .. I wanted the template to be the same as the demo , that is why I installed the QuickStart .. But now of course I have two joomla,s (db,s) but really only want one live site..

Hope someone can help with this

Cheers and thanks..

I believe you can override specific db tables from one db to the other – i.e. original to quickstart – so long as the content won’t screw up anything major. It shouldn’t – if it is only article content and the like.
