JoomlaPack Rocks!

I’ve been working on Beaver Creek Consulting’s latest product (Simply Schedules) and had a chance to use JoomlaPack.  Story short — it rocks.

I’m using Joomla for this site as I’ve decided that a CMS is the way to go.

I spent many hours configuring the site.  I did all of this work live on my shared hosting account.  Late today, after many hours of trial and tribulations, the site started to look good enough that I was happy with it.  My next thought was, I need a back up!

Joomla keeps stuff on the file system of the web server and in a MySql database.  That’s a pain to back up.

So, I found JoomlaPack, which you can just install in as a Joomla 1.5 component and then create a complete backup of the file system and database.

After I made the backup, I used kickstart to restore to my local development server.   No Problems!

I have to say that JoomlaPack is a great tool.  You can backup your production site, restore production in case of serious issues, and use JoomlaPack to move your site between environments and/or servers.

Rock away JoomlaPack!
