I moved servers and was able to dump and then restore the database on the new server. However, I just realized that I didn't close the old forum after I dumped the db and now there are new posts there. So, I closed those forums and backed up the db again.
So, I've already imported the old database on the new server. But I want to replace that with the new database. The steps for moving servers in the manual refers to importing the database into a new and empty one. Since my db isn't emtpy, is there anything I need to do first, or can I just go ahead and import the new database? If I have to first empty the database, how would I go about doing that?
