changing computers

[Toby G]

hi

I have looked around on the forum for this one, but had no luck.

I want to take my 3 sites from my computer/actinic multi-site and install them onto my dads computer. I have been building these sites for him and want to finally get them onto his computer.

I have installed actinic onto his comp. I am unsure how to proceed. do i copy all the site folders into the 'sites' 'site1' folders? Will i be able to flick between sites with 'file' 'sites' 'activate'?

just a bit unsure.

I tend to license the new sites (using the same site name as per the original saves hair pulling with some external layouts) .. switch into the new site (the database will upgrade) then simply import the snapshot for that site.

Nice and easy

[Toby G]

so do you save all your sites : 'site1' or something?

thanks

No.

In multisite I have them named:

site a (snapshot to site_a.acd)
site b (snapshot to site_b.acd)
site c (snapshot to site_c.acd)

In the new machine licesne a new site and call them the same names

site a
site b
site c

Switch to site a and import snapshot called site_a.acd

etc

cheers jont.
