I currently have a membership site with V3.08 installed. I am about to get a licence for 3.1.4 I would prefer to set up the new membership in a different directory on the same domain. Will it be possible to share the database and therefore give members of the original membership access to the new membership?..
I dont think it will work- the new version does some updates to the database. What I did when I went from 3.0.8 to 3.1.2 was to make a duplicate copy of amember on a /amember2 directory. Then I exported the data from amember1 database and replaced the /amember1 references with /amember2. Then I imported it into a new database which amember2 used. Next, I updated the 3.0.8 to 3.1.x and fixed all my templates etc.. When all was well, I copied over the files from amember2 to amember1 and updated it. All was well. David
