I have imported my member list from old forum data.
Meanwhile that forum continued adding members
Now can I again import member list?
Will it add all entry once again and create duplicate entry? Or it will add unique members only?

In test and trail period some members have joined this new forum db also.

Kindly advice. what should I do in this situation.

Last but not least, this webwiz forum is superb....I love this forum now.

If we can have unique file names for admin section then it wld be good.
like when we install forum it shoudl ask... admin file name and should prefix this in runtime only.
so that our admin files are unique.

Regards

Yes you can import members again without duplications.

There is no point or any need to have unqiue file names for admin files as these files are extremely well secured anyway. The admin area uses a much more secure server side session only login system which is different to that used in the main forum.

If you are at all worried then simply delete from your server the file admin.asp and only upload it when you want to login to the admin area. Without this file it is impossible to create the unique forum admin area session that allows access to the admin area files.
