Migration Step 1 — SQL dumps

Prepare LFMTE database exports.

What to export

Full LFMTE MySQL dump from production or backup. Include member, ad, and transaction tables per wizard checklist.

Wizard accepts .sql or .gz. Upload via browser or FTP to temp folder if file is huge.

UTF-8 dumps migrate cleanest. Fix latin1 tables before export if you see mojibake in names.
