How to handle db when migrating? - johnywhy - 2016-10-26
hi
my webhost (dreamhost) has a one-click installer for getsimple.
during their install, i'm required to select/create a db for getsimple.
should i select the db that already exists for the original site?
or create a new one?
this wiki page does not mention-
http://get-simple.info/wiki/installation:migrating
thx

no idea, ask dreamhost, maybe they just provide it in case a plugin needs a db, there are none i know of, or maybe their tool automatically does that.
