Default basic question from "Dreamweaver challenged" user - 07-21-2004 , 10:33 PM






I'm new to web design, and uploading websites. I made a simple 4 page website
and uploaded to a domain and it works. I want to upload the same site to a new
domain and keep the same site on the old domain at the same time. How do I go
about putting the same site to a new domain, what steps do I take to configure
the new FTP address, etc.? Please spell it out, I'm kinda stupid. P.S. I can't
write html code.
Thanks

I would make a copy of the original site under a new name and reset the ftp
address etc as needed.

Here are 2 options:


1. Change the FTP settings to the new site. I.e. ftp server name and
password.

2. Just foward the other domain to point to your current site.

Alternatively, I would not make a copy of the local site - I would just
create a new site that points into the same local site but uses the other
domain as the remote site. Upload the same files to the new domain.

This way a single change would reflect in both domains.
