You should not have any issues in activating Amelia on your localhost test site; then later on you can migrate everything to another site;
and you can change the domain for your licence, as well.
I will elaborate with more details, just to be sure to cover everything.
-
The basic licence covers one domain, but an unlimited number of its sub-domains.
-1. The best option is, if you have the staging installation, on a sub-domain, then you won't have to deactivate/change the domain for the licence.
2. But, if you want to use a different domain, you can do this :
In our store go to "My Licenses" and click on the "Manage Domains" button:
From there, you will be able to deactivate the old domain (while it's still active), and then simply activate the new domain in wpDataTables settings/Activation, once you move the site.
-
Regarding migrating the Amelia installation, so that you don't lose any data;
The easiest way is to clone your website. You can do that by using the Duplicator plugin. It will generate a couple of files that you can transfer to the new domain and it will create an exact copy of your website.
The Duplicator plugin can export only up to 500MB of data, so if your site is bigger than that, you can use the All-in-One WP Migration plugin.
- Other than cloning your website, there's a way to migrate only Amelia's database tables.
There are around 47 tables with wp_amelia_ prefix that need to be moved. Please note that wp_ is the default database prefix, but on your end, it could be anything, so look for your_prefix_amelia_ tables.
Besides that, you also need to go to wp_options and search for option_name "amelia_settings" - that returns one row, so you need to copy the option_value and paste it in the same field on the other site.
Note that this contains all info from your old website, so you will need to replace the URLs in this cell.
I have my web (diosaspoledance.es) replicated on localhost (my laptop) to make there the modifications prior to do them in the live site.
Can I use Amelia purcharse code also in local? Will I have difficulties if I try it?
Hi, Juan
