Is possible to install locally or in "test" mode?

#1 Postby Xenus » Jul 22, 2013 3:11 pm

I wonder if it is possible to install this script locally or in some "test/offline" mode in order to modify all the templates and once finished upload to the working server.

I have a live website and I don't want to edit the templates when the people are already on the site, I prefer to make the changes offline and upload to the server when all the changes are finished.

Anyone knows if is this possible?

Thanks in advance.

I have same question, i wish to install the whole script to maybe a sub-domain like test.domain.com for editing script files.

Can anyone suggest us how to do that ?

Actually there's better solution to edit templates in "hidden" mode for you: create Templates2 folder next to current Templates, copy all the files there from original Templates and use linke like this: "site.com/?design=2" - now you will use Templates2 folder instead of original one and this will be working for you only (using special cookie). To return back to Templates use "?design=0" link.
Hope this helps.

Thanks a lot for such a great tip on editing "Templates" in hidden mode.

But how about if we need to edit "perl" files for testing purpose ?

Then you can set up test.site.com domain script copy. We can generate you new license for test. subdomain.
