Best way of adding iJ Magazine to live production site

« on: March 03, 2008, 03:49:32 AM »

Hi again, another post from me :)

I have a second site upon which I would like to install IJ Mag. The site is live and very popular.

I'd like to ask what the recommended procedure might be for implementing the software?

Do I clone the site and run it as a dev version? if so how do I update to account for latest postings?.

Do I apply it to the live site but only make it visible to special users?

Is there a different way or a preferred / recommended mechanism?

I have searched the support & pre-purchase forums and the FAQ but haven't seen this mentioned.

Thanks

Paul

Hi,
You can use your license in your dev and live domain.
Once you finish your dev site, move it to the live domain and reinstall your iJoomla extension for the current domain.
Please check this thread for more information.
Let me know if you have any doubts.
Best regards,

Hi Ricardo,

my question is not regarding licenses.

I have a live site that is constantly updated by forumposts etc. If I clone that and make that the dev site then it will not be keeping pace with the live site.

There's not much point in taking 3 days to create the magazine on the dev site, and then either wiping out several days updates on the live site by reloading, or having to go through the process of recreating all the mag settings.

Can I export the magazine settings from the dev site and import those settings to the live site.

Perhaps I have not formed the question correctly or have misunderstood something. I do understand that I can have a dev and a live license I just want to apply the mag to a live site and keep it live.

Apologies if I'm just being stupid

Paul

Not from Joomla! backend. But if you have experience with tables management (MySQL) you can. Also, you will have to upload all the files that you modify.
