Wordpress and joomla - uploading from local host test bed?

[bcdxer]

Is it possible to upload joomla and wordpress from local host test bed?

So far i am testing wordpress and joomla modifications in my pc local test bed before doing it my actual site.This will save time and bandwidth too.

I want to upload entire wordpress or joomla from local test bed after adding contents, modifications etc to my server.

Is it possible?

How can i modify database settings?

To move joomla site ( or local host) to new server you can read at How to Joomla! (http://www.howtojoomla.net/content/view/17/2/)

That site is usually pretty good for advice, but in this case, you can't even read the entire article, it's cut off on the right.

How to migrate your site:

1. Back up all files, and mySQL database(using phpMyAdmin)

2. Using ftp software, move all files to your server preserving structure relative to the root directory. If this isn't possible, you will need to make a few changes.

3. Create a mySQL database with the same settings as your offline one.

4. once again, using phpMyAdmin use the mySQL backup file to populate your sites mySQL database.

5. Test and correct as necessary

basically create a dump of the database on your pc, upload all the files to the server, create a database on the server and load the db dump into you mysql server

you need to adapt the connection parameters to the new one, you can do it modifying your local files or using an editor like pspad that let's you edit files accessing them via FTP ( I use this a lot )
