Transfer of Test Site content to Actual Domain SIte

  • Transfer of Test Site content to Actual Domain SIte

    Posted 11 years 11 months ago
    • I signed up an account for an account in Rocket Theme Wordpress Club with 1 entitlement.

      I download and used Clarion theme for my project. I installed the theme in the test site: maximumresultscoaching.ebundancedotcomsecrets.com while in the development stage. I need to backup and transfer the content now in the actual domain site maximumresultscoaching.com using backup buddy plugin. But as I proceed with the installation/transfer, I encountered problem with the copying of backup to the new site specially with the database that pertains to Clarion Theme and a stylesheet is missing. In this regard, I would like to ask for support on how would I able to transfer the test site to its actual domain without having to re install the WP Theme and start doing it again. Thank you so much and looking forward for response/solution regarding this matter.

    • Hi,
      transferring and moving a Gantry-powered website is no different than other WordPress setups. You just need to copy both your site files and the database to the new server. Please read this codex page to learn more how to move a WordPress site to another location: codex.wordpress.org/Moving_WordPress .
    • Please don't PM unless requested ;)
      Consider using the custom stylesheet for all your CSS customizations: gantry-framework.org/documentation/wordp...custom_stylesheet.md .
      Please provide the URL to the issue.
      And please mark the thread as solved if the issue is resolved.

    • I used Backup Buddy plugin to transfer the site. Does having 1 Entitlement credit has nothing to do with the site transfer? Does it mean, I am allowed only to install the Gantry website to only 1 host even if it is test site?

    • The entitlement is for one live site, so if you have a test site or a temporary site on a temporary url, you can always put it behind a password. This is good practice anyways.

    • Hi,

      I have been having trouble with this exact issue. I have built a website in wordpress using the Clarion theme and just yesterday started work on getting live on a new server with a different domain name.

      I have followed the instructions word for word and so far my website appears as nothing, I have connected the database in wp-config on the server and going to the domain returned just a empty page, no errors.

      I uploaded the site via ftp and used the eXtend control to access myphp and do the database stuff.

      The server that I am trying to move the site to is controlled by the eXtend control panel. Could this be giving interference to the site when trying to put it live?

      I have a backup version of the old site back up now as I cant get the new one working so no help showing you the domain however any help you can give will be much appreciated!

    • Hi,
      hard to tell what has gone wrong without looking at the issue. Please retry uploading the site, and if something should go wrong PM me the details, I'd be happy to take a look.

    • Hello,
      I once bought 2 wordpress entitlements, 1 for demo, and 1 other already launched on my site.
      I just read shazdeh wrote: "Hi,
      no, test sites do not count; the entitlement only counts when the website is live and launched. Please see here for detailed info about entitlements: www.rockettheme.com/help/entitlements ."

      If that the case, is that means i still have 1 entitlements for my other site, is that correct?
      if that so i'm really so happy.
