Importing projects into CodeIgniter

Hi ghostdog, and welcome to the CI forums.

There's nothing in the user guide - so don't get too excited there! There's [url="/wiki/site_migrate"]this article[/url] in the Wiki, by Sophistry, about migrating an extant site - well worth a read. There was also an excellent post a month or so ago by someone, but a quick search doesn't turn up the post/thread I'm looking for. Hopefully the person who wrote it will pop up again and point you in the right direction.

My gut feel on the matter is ... if you have the luxury of being able to leave the existing site alone, and work elsewhere on the new site - you're better off doing this. It'll just be so much easier to manage. I'm doing this at the moment with a photo gallery I wrote a while ago, and it's fairly straightforward. I've copied all my old code into a LEGACY sub-directory in my CI instance - it's ignored by CI, and I just copy and past and heavily modify bits of code, removing them from the LEGACY/files as I go - in theory when I get to the end I'll have a working site Wink Seriously, though, it's been a good way to go for me so far.
