From Localhost to server

Recommended Posts

Hi, i updated my website on localhost,did some changes and changed the version of prestashop and now i need to run it live and I have few questions :) I know I need to upload all my files to existing ftp thats not a problem and i know about databse and all the changes i have to make like from localhost to www.shopname.com but the problem is... while i was doing some changes on localhost the old version of site was running live. Sooo... I need to create new database in my host provider site but when i press create they give me petshop_db name. My database was only named petshop so how do i need to proceed? just change in config file db name to new one? from petshop to petshop_petshop? will it work good? :) thanks in advance.

the name of the mysql database your created on remote host is not important...so no worry

 

open this file:

 

config/settings.inc.php

 

there you set the new remote host db sever/db name/db user/db pwd...upload to new remote site...

 

note  back up your localhost settings.inc.php so you can still use localhost...

 

that's it!
