Administrator Switching Computers Need Help

[:: melissa ::]

How do I import the Contribute Administrator setting to my new computer.
I have 5 sites with contribute 2 on my old computer and I now have a
new one with studio 8 and I want to be able to work from this machine
with my old settings.

Thank you

dw menu-->Site-->Edit or Manage sites.

pick the site from the list, Export button.
Transfer all the .ste files, and all the Local Site Folders to the new
machine.

Note- Dw8 has a new feature in the Import button for the Manage Site dialog
box. You can point it to a folder and import all the .ste files in one shot
i think.

As far as the contribute users and groups settings- those are stored on the
remote host, in the _mm folder at root level, contribute.xml
You only need to transfer that file if you change servers.

If you have Contribute installed on your machine- I think you can Export
your site settings for Contribute from the "My Connections" box.
