Changing "Created" date was created by Margolin
I am confused a bit. I need to migrate some active surveys from one Limesurvey 2 instance to Limesurvey 3 one. I assumed that exporting .lsa archive from one instance and importing it to another one will do the trick and was right but only partially. Apparently, neither survey's creation date nor survey owner data is transferred with .lsa archive. While it is possible to change the survey's owner using the admin panel there is no option to change its creation date. I've searched the database (Postgres) but still have no clue which parameter is responsible for displaying the creation date. Now I've got a bunch of surveys with the date of creation that = date of import. That's not desirable. Could anyone give me some tips on the topic?
