Dear all, my shopping cart text material is ready to hit online. Now I have following questions.
1) Can I upload CS-Cart website from local-host to online, off-course with all the design customization maintained?
2) If so what are the files I must configure? Please do not tell me that I have to change some xx.php files, without telling where exactly changes has to be done, I mean what code I have to modify.
The guide http://forum.cs-cart.com/topic/14373-moving-cscart-from-server-to-localhost/did not help me much as no one is willing to tell what changes has to be done to config.local.php and .htaccess.
You should change the following lines in config.local.php:
$config['db_host'] = '[DB host]';
$config['db_name'] = '[DB name]';
$config['db_user'] = '[DB username]';
$config['db_password'] = '[DB password]';
// Host and directory where software is installed on no-secure server
$config['http_host'] = '[server host]'; // example.com
$config['http_path'] = '/[subfolder]'; // /store (if your CS-Cart is installed in example.com/store, or it should be empty if your store is installed in the root folder)
// Host and directory where software is installed on secure server
$config['https_host'] = '[https server host]';
$config['https_path'] = '/[subfolder]';
That is all you need after moving the files and uploading your database dump
How permissions are set to files and folders after move from windows pc?
Here is a good article which describes the whole process:
