I work on my websites offline with MAMP and WAMP environments. It’s a very common practice. I have been trying to update my online website with my latest work on the offline website. I’m very familiar with what needs to be done to migrate a website backup from localhost to an online domain. I even know how to use Specular’s backup Export. I know I have to change the urls in the sql export of the database from phpAmin before importing it online.
I have tried and tried and the same thing keeps happening, Specular resets itself to default settings. I loose my logos, custom colors, fonts settings…pretty much any customization to the Specular settings. I try to restore the Specular backup I made prior to migration and the only thing that happens is my menu items get duplicated. I have found it ineffectual for restoring most settings. Now if I only migrate to another directory or subdomain on the same system, everything migrates OK. But when I’m moving from PC to online, I loose all my them settings every time.
Please help. Thanks – Jeff
Hello,
Theme customization and settings are stored in the database. Please make sure you are migrating correctly the database and that all links are converted correctly.
Let us know.
Best regards!
