Saving/downloading site built on C5host?
Permalink
Hello all,
I'd like to know if there is a way to download my C5 site to my computer while I try to figure out how to correctly install the CMS to my server?
I've worked hard on the little that I've accomplished and I don't want to loose it just because my trial period will soon expire
I didn't realize the trial period would be so short(I just signed up a couple of days ago), & I'm told I have only 4 days left. The learning curve has been quite steep for me.
While I've figured out a few things, I've still got a long way to go. And figuring out how to correctly install this on a server is not something I'm really looking forward to. I like this system, I just don't know very much about it (PHP) yet.
Any help is greatly appreciated,
Thanks

there is no ftp access for the trial, which means that you can't download your entire site, so images/files will probably be lost. however, you can download a sql backup which will have some of your information. this is in dashboard/maintenance/backup restore and run a sql backup from there, and then download that. Also if you want to still host with c5, I believe that they offer a feature to bring all your progress from the trial over, but im not sure.
yeah if you buy even a Starter hosting account ($95/yr) you'll have FTP and SSH access to this stuff... If your really need to host elsewhere, buy a starter account at the monthly rate of $15 and get yer SSH / FTP access that way.
