Hi, I use a product called Desktop Server to develop Wordpress sites locally on my machine. Would your product allow me to clone a local development wordpress site and then deply it live? Thanks.

Hi Dana,

Yes BackupBuddy can be used for that. Plenty of the people with BackupBuddy use it for that very purpose, to build a site in a development location (locally, subdirectory test folder, or another domain, etc) and then migrate it to the live location once ready.


Thanks,

As a follow question here: Where it comes to using Backup Buddy locally with DesktopServer, should BackBuddy be installed as an Individual, MultiSite Network, or MultiSite Site?  Also, I want to migrate at least one individual legacy site running locally under XAMPP (backup by BackupBuddy) to the DesktopServer environment.  From there I would deploy sites live and back them up from the hosted server and/or development (local) server.

Thanks.

Hi greenbeing

BackupBuddy is installed as a plugin on either standalone or multi-site installations. On a multi-site installation it would be network activated. Please note that multi-site capabilities are currently in beta.
