Move prestashop from local hosting to a2 hosting

[[email protected]]

Hi,

 

I have installed Prestashop 1.5.4 on my local hosting and will now start to use A2 Hosting. I would prefer to move the old version to A2 Hosting since I already started to build my webshop. I could move it via FTP so that it shows up in the File Manager but it has not been installed. How do I install it?

 

Best,

 

Johan

you will need to move also database. To move databse you have to export it first, and then - import to your a2 hosting account.

after that, go to /config/settings.inc.php file located on your a2 host and change database credentials

Thanks,

 

I think I managed to export it and import it, I just don't understand how to find: /config/settings.inc.php? Shall I go to the File Manager or how do I find it?

 

And what it means "change databse credentials"?

 

Thanks for your patience...
