Hi folks,
as my current instance will shut down soon, I need to transfer the ownership of my tiny community to my new account on a different server. I know I can make my new account a moderator. But will the new acc then have 100% of the administration options that my current account has? Or will it only be a second-class role? I’m used to 2000er forum/boards where admin accounts carried way more privileges than mods. Like a mod could also never delete the whole thing.
That’s exactly how I did it when we spun up the new instance.
And once all the of the content was here, we transferred kicked off the transfer process.
It’s not feature complete, as you said. In our case, it broke, because of a bug around the way it handled community names that use upper case letters, which required editing the database to fix
But despite that, at the end of it, we have the old content on the new community. Even if it doesn’t federate, it’s not lost
