- 5.Once the install is complete, click the gear icon on the DataGrab 3.x version, and click Uninstall, and then you can remove the
addons/ajw_datagrabfolder. All your previously saved imports and Import URLs will remain the same. - 6.If you were using the
{exp:ajw_datagrab:run_action}or{exp:ajw_datagrab:run_saved_import}template tags you will need to rename them to{exp:datagrab:run_action}and{exp:datagrab:run_action}
If you DataGrab 3.0.3 is the latest version you have, you may experience a database SQL error on step #5 above. To avoid the error you will need to edit the upd.ajw_datagrab.php file. Go to line 121 of the file and you will see:
ee()->db->delete('module_member_groups'); You can choose to comment out this line and the one above it, then uninstall, or change 'module_member_groups' to 'module_member_roles', then uninstall.Last modified 2mo ago
