Import Config from previous instance
Is there not a way to import a Homarr config from a previously deployed server? I have the json I exported prior to nuking my previous instance, but can't figure out what to do with it.

Just put the file in your config folder that you should have mounted
Hi
How do i import the config from the previously deployed server
I have a default.json in config folder
but it didn't import it
it startet from scratch
Do i need to put in the new data folder ?
Typo config <-> configs in the compose yml
@Tag any chance of implementing the drag and drop import feature from before?
It's still here, just drag and drop into ./homarr/configs 😂😂
I understand. My instance is on a vm, so I have to go digging around a bit to find that folder. Not a major deal, but dragging and dropping onto the main dashboard was very convenient.
I was just joking. But, I don't see an issue open on GitHub. You should make one if this is a feature you would like to see come back:

I have to weigh how much I care about this. It’s not a deal breaker by any means. Seems like a feature that would’ve rolled over easily, but if it didn’t I assume it’s because it takes some effort. That effort should probably go to more worthy features.
It's not super difficult to implement that again but we'll do it once configs can be put inside the databse
You'll be able to import a config from a file and load it insid eof homarr, export it too (configs = dashboard actually)
Awesome. Appreciate your work on this app
