The general steps are:
Either run command askbot-setup or merge contents of directory askbot/setup_templates in the source code into your project directory.
Back up your database if it is not blank, then two commands:
There are two apps to migrate - askbot and django_authopenid (a forked version of the original, included within askbot), so you can as well migrate them separately
There are some limitations that will be removed in the future. If any of these cause issues - please do not hesitate to contact support@askbot.com.
Askbot patches auth_user
table. The migration script will automatically add missing columns, however it will not overwrite any existing columns. Please do back up your database before adding askbot to an existing site.
Included into askbot there are two forked apps: django_authopenid
and livesettings
. If you have these apps on your site, you may have trouble installing askbot.
User registration and login system is bundled with Askbot, but can be replaced with any other. It is quite good though, it allows logging in with password and many authentication service providers, including popular social services and recover account by email.
If there are any other collisions, askbot will simply fail to install, it will not damage your data.
Askbot is based on CNPROG project by Mike Chen and Sailing Cai, project which was originally inspired by StackOverflow and Yahoo Answers.
