Hi,

You announced that EE will feature a new and improved installation process and this is great.

I didn’t read anything about transferring your finished EE site to another server.

Everyone usually work on a local copy that once finished is moved to the client server.

I find this last step a particular kind of hell since you have to go everywhere in the admin to change paths and that their is always the possibility to overlook one. The upload root path is a particular favorite of mine.

Please tell me that from now on EE won’t need a server root or at least only in one place.

Otherwise, big fan of the Freelance licence, I think I’ll move my personnal site to EE as soon as possible 😊

Try Deeploy Helper to eliminate that administrative path problem.

Hi,

@ Gramps : Thanks, this look nifty indeed. I’ll try for our next EE site. Now I just hope that such an addon isn’t required anymore on EE 2.

@ Lincolnpixel : Thanks but this article is about how easy adding and developing addons will be. Not about the deploy of an existing EE site on a new server, at least from what I understood.

Deeploy Helper is great for EE 1.6.8x sites. It makes sense that EE 2.0 would improve on that messy little area of path configurations (they’re all over the place, which is what makes Deeploy Helper worthy).
