Q. Can I transfer a Joomla 1.5 site from my local pc (localhost) to the live domain? Further, can I update the live site with the changes made on localhost? I mean I have a site on localhost while a joomla is already installed on the live domain. Can I overwrite the live domain with my localhost site?
A. Please see the answers below:
1) Yes, you can just install our Joomla site moving extension to your localhost joomla installation and then simply transfer it to any live domain.
2) Yes, you can transfer your localhost site to overwrite or update any existing Joomla site on a live domain.
3) The process is super easy if you have cPanel (3rd party site management script) on your target domain.
