    Hello,

    I'm new (and actually I know just a few things about the module) and I'm using "Toxonomy DNN" to create some vocabularies for my website. I have a problem, which I'm gonna discuss in the following two questions on one topic:

    First question: I have two huge vocabularies (in DNN blog categories), which I need to merge them together and create a bigger vocabulary from them; to have just one vocabulary consisting of the contents of both initial vocabularies.
    Is there an "easy to do" way, for doing this job?

    Second question: In the situation I've discussed in first question, if I can open "the first vocabulary" in "Admin/Categories" page to edit (and add the contents of second vocabulary to it), my problem will be solved. But unfortunately in the "Admin/Categories" page, there is always only a blank page; and I cannot acces to the contents of previous vocabularies. Is there any way to solve this problem?

    Note: If there's a way to do either of the obove two jobs, I will be able to save lots of time.

    Thanks

      If there is no UI to do this, you can do it with SQL operating on the taxonomy tables in the database. I've never attempted doing anything like that, so make back backups and be careful. There are 4 tables with taxonomy in their name. Two of them would seem to have a role in what you describe doing.
