Hello

I currently use JoomPlace Deluxe on my live site running Joomla 3 still.

I have been developing my site on a test website to migrate it all to Joomla 4 and using Community Quiz for my quiz elements instead. It is all going great and loving community quiz but I had the following questions please.

What I am doing is copying all the community quiz tables (Maverick supplied me a picture of all the tables needed) from my test website by exporting them as SQL tables from the test website.

I am then installing Community Quiz on my live site when the migration is at the right place and using phpMyAdmin to delete all the empty community quiz tables that are installed to begin with.

I then import the backup tables made from the test site again through phpMyAdmin so I don't need  to recreate all the quizzes, questions and everything else to save me a lot of time.

This all works great except that my Categories are emptied out and not showing in the Dashboard or against any of the quizzes like they were in test. The levels are there but the categories section is empty and any quiz goes back to uncategorised.

I have also noticed that all the individual permissions I made against each quiz for the correct Joomla access levels have gone as well and I didn't want to have to go and redefine them all again if possible.

Please let me know if I am making sense and if I can understand where Categories are defined and stored in the tables and also why the permissions have been lost and rest to inherited (not allowed).

This will save me so much time when I come to migrate over to Joomla 4 and Community Quiz in the next week or so.

Thanks again for everything the last few weeks Maverick

I really appreciate it all

Chris
