Now that I have planted my foot in the door with this program and am receiving a good response, I want to set some security in place for myself. First and foremost is what is the best way to go about doing a backup for my site? Secondly I want to consider setting up a test server. Now I only have one domain...is it not smart to do a test setup on the same server running as my live database? should I buy a domain just for testing? What do others do? Thanks everyone!

You must log in to post replies.the better for you is create a subdomain in your main domain and there install a testing/development elgg
That's 4 questions lolz ;-)
Melvynn, thanks!
Dhruva, haha good point. Sorry I guess the last 2 had to do with the second question.
Why not install your test site on your WAMP server.
We use 3 different servers because in order to do do heavy load-testing we cannot hit our production server, so a different server is needed. e.g. hitting the server for testing with ab or jmeter - with thousands of hits cannot be done on the same server as prod.
@SM
WAMPP is fine for low level functional testing and checking out software, but when "load" and stress" testing is required.. one really needs a "live" box to test with ;-)
