Hi,
I’m almost finish setting up my forum on localhost. I was just wondering are there any special tricks to transfer from localhost to live server? Thanks!
Nothing specific,. If you export/import all of the tables (those starting ‘sf’) along with the WP users and usermeta tables then it should all be Ok although any urls that may be set may need adjustment.
My plan was to export whole DB from localhost, change URL’s and import on server. It shouldn’t be any problem then. Ty! One other question.. Is it possible to remove login and register buttons from forum, as I’m using another plugin for login.. I would hate to have a few different login screens on one website..
Yes, pretty straight forward – you can remove these buttons by removing the template functions in the spHead.php template of your theme. You can also setup login re-directs from the admin panel in Forum > Components > Login and Registration.
If you do make any changes to the template, be sure to create a custom or child theme to preserve the change!
