    Default Migration/Duplication

    I would like to have several ZenCarts running off of the same server. Basically they would all be roughly the same data, so I'm looking to make multiples of the Cart (each in its own folder) , duplicate the MySQL databases in something like MyPHPadmin, then attach them to the ZenCarts.

    My question really centers around whether there is a complete checklist for this.

    Is my guess:

    1. Make a 'boilerplate' version of ZC with all the standardized CSS/layout, product/category, etc. in place.
    2. Go into MyPHPadmin and replicate the database.
    3. Move it over to my C:drive as /boilerplate.
    6. FTP /boilerplate back over and rename /'newzealand' for example
    7. Go into /admin/includes/configure.php and change the database handles and base URLS
    8. Do the same for /includes/configure.php
    9. Diddle with the admin section (store adress, email address, etc.)

    Right?

    Or am I missing something?

    Thanks,
    Peter

    Default Re: Migration/Duplication

    For anyone interested. That indeed does the trick. Do a global replace in both configure.php files to change the directories, clone the MySQL database and link them up.
