Syncronising Live shop with test shop

[lateral]

Hi guys

 

I have a very simple question.

 

I have to Prestashop domains. DomainLive is the live shop and DomainTest is a test environment.

 

I created DomainTest from a complete FTP backup of DomainLive and therefore was a complete mirror image of DomainLive.

 

 

During the last few months I have been adding products and new categories etc to DomainLive and would like to syncronize it with DominTest without having to go through doing a complete website (all folders etc).

 

Is it a simple matter of taking a backup of only the DomainLive MySQL database and then just restoring it into the MySQL database of DomainTest???

 

Thanks for your help.

 

Cheers

Greg

Nearly. You should also set the server name and the path. This can be done in the back office under SEO&URLs or in the ps_shop_url table. And it is advisable also to copy your images. 

 

Also, you might check that both have the same modules loaded.

Thanks mate

 

So, in summary...all I need to do is import the MySQL tables from DomainLive into DomainTest and change the Server name and path? I will also check that the same modules are loaded..
