The first thing to ensure when moving data from doogiePIM version 1 to version 2 is;
- Ensure you have made your latest backups before doing anything.
- Install doogiePIM version 2 into the new folder; "C:\BiteSpire\doogiePIM2"
- Shutdown any doogiePIM that is running.
TLDR: To copy your data from v1 to v2
1. Head into your doogiePIM version 1 folder "C:\BiteSpire\doogiePIM" and copy the files you need; Some of the following files may not be there, so don't worry. You may find it easier to just copy the whole "Data Files" folder.
2. Now paste the files/folder into the doogiePIM version 2 folder "C:\BiteSpire\doogiePIM2".
-----------------------------------------------------
You can't move the home section settings as version 2 uses a new preferences system. In the new version, all the settings are kept in one file held in the Data Files folder instead of the old root folder. This makes it easy for backups as you only need to backup the whole Data Files folder and you have everything.
