NYCPHP Meetup

[Helvécio da Silva]

Try this:

1. Do a clean install of Joomla (no sample data)
2. In PHPMyAdmin control panel, choose the database this new install is
using
3. Go to the IMPORT tab, choose your previous database and upload it
4. That should do the trick! Previous members and passwords wil be there, as
well as all the rest of the content.
