Hello,
I need to move my Versatility-site to another domain. I'd like to know if it's just a question of downloading and uploading my whole site from the root, or do I need to rocketlaunch the versatility template and then upload all content?
Thanks!

- Please reply with a direct link to the issue & create a new thread for each new issue.
A template is only as good as the content that goes into it

If you are comfortable working with command line directly on your server, I have found that the fastest way to do this is to use SSH and copy (scp) the website and database from the old server onto the new server, reset your permissions and file ownership, and you are good to go. Make sure that you have the corresponding database user setup on the new server before you begin. If you are changing the domain of the new site, you can edit the configuration.php file with the new livesite URL.
Best wishes,

Yes, I did mention that. It is one of the most common things that people forget to do.
