Moring Article Manager to another server
|
Can't Post

I'm designing a site for a client and I'm getting everything set up on a test area on my personal domain. Once the site is all complete it will replace the clients current site. What I'm wondering is when I get ready to move it over will the articles I've entered transfer over as well. I've got over 300 articles so I don't want to have to enter them twice.
Thanks,
Adam

Hi Adam,
Good news, you won't have to worry about entering in your articles again. All of the article content you enter into Article Manager is stored in the data files so when you make the move you'll want to move the data files over as well.
Just in case you're wondering, here are the steps I usually take when moving Article Manager over from one server to another.
1. Back up the following folders and files.
/templates/*.*
/data/*.*
/uploads/*.*
/exec/config.ini
2. Do a fresh installation on the server you're migrating to.
3. Upload the back up files over the files of the same names on the new server.
4. Log in with your username from your old installation. Go to the setup options and make sure the Directories/Paths and URLs are correct. You'll probably have to modify them to reflect the directory structure of the new server. Click Save.
5. Now click the 'Publish All' button. This is done so all of the existing articles can be republished.
And that's it. :)

Thanks for the quick answer. I thought that would be the case but wanted to be sure.
