2. Deploying a static or PHP site
When developing a static or PHP site, one of the most important steps is to deploy the site on a web server (at a hosting service or on an Intranet). Two deployment methods are available: - remote deployment (via FTP): This method is recommended when the server is not directly accessible.
- network deployment: This method is recommended when the server is easily accessible.
WDDeploy simplifies the deployment of your static sites. Creating the setup program To deploy your static site: - On the "Project" tab, in the "Generation" group, click "Deploy site". WDDeploy starts.
- Create a profile for your site. This profile contains the following information:
- Location of local files ("<ProjectName>_WEB" subdirectory of your site).
- Address of the WEBDEV website.
- Location of the deployed website files (network or FTP server).
- Characteristics of the FTP server used to update the site. These characteristics are provided by the hosting service.
- Click the "Prepare" button. WDDeploy prepares the list of files to install. For an update, WDDeploy compares the files located on the development computer with those already installed.
- Click the "Synchronize" button. The site files are copied to the location specified in the profile.
