    Before I Upload

    Posted 16 years 6 months ago
    • Hi All,

      I'm just getting toward the end of my first website, and first Joomla site. Everything built on MAMP so far, with a lot of work and learning involved.

      I just purchased my domain name and web space and will upload within the next day.

      Please help a nervous Joomla noob...

      Is there anything I MUST be doing or adding to my site before I upload ???

      Meaning along the lines of security of the site, safety of the data, ensuring a clean backup etc. I plan to use Cyberduck for FTP.

      Prevention is always better than cure :)

      Thanks in advance.

      1. Upload the folders and files from your local install

      2. Login into phpmyadmin, export your database and import this into your server's database

      3. Change the configuration.php file to reflect the new location and details

    • Thanks James, I appreciate your advice, but this is an entirely different question than my other question which was about how to upload. And if I can't get that sorted straight away, I suppose I'll have to find somewhere else to ask for support because that question was locked for some unknown reason ???



      This question was a matter of security.
