I have now synced the gallery and all the events are there is there a way to transfer the settings for example most have passwords and tags and would like them to transfer over and several i have added descriptions of and that took a while as there was over 600 photos in one event, i was thinking of copying the com_eventgallery in the old to the new they have the same version so would that work? many thanks for taking the time to help me and by the way this is a fantastic extension worth every penny thanks for designing it

Did you tried to use the build in import/export feature? You can find it in the top toolbar on the overview page of the component. That might help if you don't use categories.

Seems like you used a new table prefix. The import can't know about that. You can fix this in the downloaded zip file manually. You can also copy the #__evengallery_* tables manually.

Wait.. maybe there is an easier way. Open the downloaded zip file, delete the file #__eventgallery_token, zip it again, try to import this. I forgot that this token table does not longer exist.

Okay, I missed that you stuck with the export. So forget my last posts.

Which eventgallery tables exist in your database?

do you have more than one joomla installation in this database? Maybe there is an older installation containing the -eventgallery_token table.

Please have a look at the latest build: https://www.svenbluege.de/joomla-event-gallery/eventgallery-download/event-gallery-bleeding/3_4_0

It might help to get the export running. Please let me know about your findings.
