taxonomy
I'm not seeing the taxonomy duplication. Have you alread y fixed it, or is it not visible to me?

What do you mean by the taxonomy duplication?

Server issues and changing servers
If you've already started transfering the drupal site, does that mean that any further posts before the new site has propogated will be lost?

I started making comments again, but then I realized that maybe I needed to hold off until we were on the new site.

I fixed it
By duplication, I mean that every single taxonomy term appeared twice ("I see everything twice!"). Twice in the sitemap, twice on the categories page, twice on...oh, you get the idea. When I went to administrate the taxonomy terms, they were all in there *twice.* Weirdly, "editing" them (without making any changes) and then submitting them over again seemed to fix the problem.

Strange, strange, strange.

Don't worry.
When it comes time to transfer the database, I'll shut it down over here first. That will mean some down time, but I figure it's better than having the data all screwy, or even worse, confusing MYSQL by trying to copy the database at the exact same time as it's been opened by a call from here, or anything like that.

Right now, I'm concentrating on getting all of the inactive and non-dynamic stuff moved over. It seemed a more relaxing way to begin.
