First of all sorry for my poor English.
I'm new in magento, but I decided to use it and bought the template.
I try it intalled on my local server and all was good (openserver, windows), after that i try it installed in local server on Mac OS X. All was OK.
Problems started when I uploaded magento with template on hosting (first of all I tried intall magento on VPS hosting (linux) and after I tried install it to default hosting on linux). All steps I did with this tutorial.
Some blocks of pages are disapeared and some css and js paths were wrong (default paths on default theme), but mostly theme is worked.
Magento's admin panel didn't change the language.
wrong design of search and wrong css and js paths
I modify the base URL database table. (table is core_config_data, I change 2 values - web/unsecure/base_url and web/secure/base_url).
I try delete /cache and /sessions in folder var/ and
I try reindex all data.
And I change permission to all folders 755 And files to 644.
I did all tips which I found in the net.
Can somebody give me advice with these problems?

I'm not a programer I just play around html and css. Few weeks ago I was asked to make a Wordpress site for a friend. Thinking that the best idea would be to do it on XAMPP and then move it to live, I worked on it for quite some time.
Just when I was about to finish, something happened with powersurge and my computer got totaled, motherboard, graphics, power, all fried, all except for hard disc that somehow survived.
Now I got a laptop and new XAMPP instalation, but I have no idea how to transfer site from my old Hard disc to new. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!
Edit: I have moved files from old xampp folder to new, but problem is database.
Usually(default) xampp is installed on the C drive, you can find it at:
C:\xampp\
projects are stored in the htdocs file inside of that, move the project(or projects if you have multiple) in its entirety from the old htdocs file to the new one.
Get your MySQL Data Files from C:\XAMPP\mysql\data and follow the instructions here
You can do this by following this steps:
1) copy your site from c:/xampp/htdocs/[copy your site name folder]
(before just check that your xampp install in which drive. common is C drive).
2)export database from phpmyadmin
type in URL : http://localhost/phpmyadmin/
then select your database and export it.
3)paste your folder in new PC's xampp/htdocs
4)import your database in your new Xampp.
I tried this way and its working good.
Install xammp and wordpress on new computer.
copy wordpress folder from C:\xampp\apps folder
Export wordpress folder from phpmyadmin.
replace the wordpress folder to new system and drop all table from wordpress db and
import the old db datas.
Notes:
If you config or merge other tools like phpbb means you have to change that also to
the new location.
Not sure if i'm at the right place but oh well,
Since a month or two I've started working at a company which uses Magento. Everything was going smoothly, except for the fact that I now try to add an extension to the root directory of Magento through cPanel, in the installation guide I found the following steps:
Installation:
Before installing the extension, please make below notes complete:
Clear your website cache under located at var/cache directory.
If you’re installing extension on live website, please backup your store database and web directory.
Disable Compilation by going to Admin Control Panel -> System -> Tool -> Compilation.
Multi PRODUCT EDITOR Installation:
Extract Multi_Product_Editor-1.0.0.tgz file.
Upload the extracted folders (/app, /js, /skin) respectively into the root of your Magento installation.
From the Admin Control Panel, refresh cache at System => Cache Management. Log out and log in back
now I have found a problem with uploading the extracted folders, because
There are already a folder called App and one called Skin and I'm not sure if I should overwrite those
When I wanted to upload the specific folders, it can't, I can't upload the folder "App" and it only allows me clicking the folder and searching through the folder's folders.
I'm still new to Magento but I learn everyday! please tell me if I'm doing something wrong or if I need to take a step back, I gladly appreciate all your help!
Also, if I wasn't specific enough, or if you need more details, just say so and I'll try adding as much as I can :)
kind regards
Clay
In magento app and skin are mandatory folders so you must not erase them. But if your module you want to add is adding properly, it will just add based on magento structure and create a new module in community or local for the app, and a new design in skin.
Be always careful of where the modules installs things anyway
super frustrated by this problem. I am trying to learn wordpress development and I have been trying for hours to find the files I need such as functions.php but alas I can not find the files
Does anyone know where functions.php and other wordpress files would be on linux installed from bitnami?
I have found /opt/lampp/var/mysql but I can not access it with the permissions it has.
I have tried changing the permissions using chmod but I still can not get into it.
it's under apps/wordpress/
The following is from their readme file.
apache2/: Apache Web server.
varnish/: Varnish Cache
php/: PHP Scripting Language.
mysql/: MySQL Database.
apps/
wordpress/: WordPress application folder
conf/: WordPress Apache configuration files
htdocs/: WordPress PHP application files
phpMyAdmin/: phpMyAdmin application folder (optional)
I am creating a WP theme (for personal use only) and I need to be able to preview PHP files.
Here's where I'm at so far:
I use Adobe's Brackets.
I have a server on Bluehost.
I have downloaded FileZilla and linked it to my bluehost server.
I have created a directory on my bluehost server: /public_html/wp-content/themes/Cookie
I have downloaded an FTP Sync extension in Brackets, and synced it to the root directory of my theme (/public_html/wp-content/themes/Cookie).
I have installed MAMP on my mac (although never used it and have no idea what to do next).
I have contact Adobe Brackets and they have said this: "If you have a MAMP (or other PHP server) set up, you just need to change the File->Project Settings"
But I have no idea what to do now I have downloaded MAMP.
As you can probably tell, I'm a bit of a noob so please explain things delicately :)
Thanks in advance!!!!
download Wordpress from wordpress.org, install it locally on your MAMP, it shoud have a folder called www or data, reading the docs is recommended. Then, download your theme from your hosting and to the wp-content/themes/ folder, now start a new project, it's gonna be easier.
When your theme is ready, upload it to the server again.
Hope this helps.
I had the same issue but figured it out with the help of your question.
So this is for brackets newcomers like myself :)
Guide for Mac:
Setting up Server
Download and install MAMP
Go to MAMP Preferences
Change the "document root to your project
Brackets Setting:
Open Brackets
Make sure the "Enable Experimental Live Preview" IS OFF! (File > Enable...)
Go to File > project setting
copy and paste this default MAMP server address (http://localhost:8888/) [or change according to your MAMP setting]
Thats it you have got your live preview up and running!
Before everything happened, I was running this wordpress install for developing themes using xampp. But I decided to upgrade the memory of this machine from 2GB to 6GB since I need extra room for applications. I back-up my code in a separate partition by copying them. Since I have a 32bit OS at the time, I format the computer and installed a 64bit version. All is well and fine the OS side.
When I setup my web dev environment something goes wrong.
When I imported my htdocs back, first by just fully copying them to a new fresh install of xampp and notice that all of the codes that put are not working. My CI code is displaying my PHP code in the browser. My theme in wordpress is also commenting out my PHP code when I view the source. The themes included in my fresh wordpress install works so there's something I am missing here.
From the looks of it, the php is being executed properly since anything that I install works. Just that the ones that came from a previous xampp is not.
Open up the php.ini file and set short_open_tag = On. Then restart apache.
If you are opening a local script directly in the web browser, maybe through your editor, double-clicking on the file or dragging and dropping the file ito the browser - it will be treated as HTML only.
Instead, open the file by typing... http://localhost/your-file.php into the address bar. I personally create a projects folder in the htdocs folder and then create a bookmark for... http://localhost/projects/ and this will display all my projects that are saved into my projects folder.
Note: if you changed the mail port for the Apache server, you will need to add that to the path as well. eg. If your main port is 8888, your would do this... http://localhost:8080/your-file.php
I had the same problem and this worked for me. Good Luck
For me, it was because the file was named as ".html". You must have an extension ".php"
