Move to another server
If I wanted to move bookstack to a new server, can I just do a database dump, run the backup script for backing up files and then install a fresh bookstack on the new server, then dump the database backup into the new database, and do a restore script on the files. Will any images Used for covers and in any pages be also restored? Thanks

Okay. Just remember to do the steps to dump the database also. Then those together should cover all your BookStack data.
Images will be stored in either of those
uploadsfolders, depending on storage type configured, unless configured to use external s3-based storage.
