Glen MacPherson Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 I am building a new website/store - on a new host - for a friend who wants to keep their current store and host intact until I switch things over. SiteGround is the new host and I used their one-click install for PrestaShop, which worked fine. But there's an obvious problem now: how do I access and configure PrestaShop when the domain name still points to the old host? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prestachamps Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Hi, If you're new host has a dedicated IP added than you can try adding it to your localhost: https://support.managed.com/kb/a683/how-to-modify-your-hosts-file-so-you-can-work-on-a-site-that-is-not-yet-live.aspx https://support.solarwinds.com/SuccessCenter/s/article/Edit-the-host-file-to-add-static-entry-for-hosts-that-are-not-resolving-by-DNS-EDIT?language=en_US Cheers, Leo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
