Hello,
I've looked over the documentation and some past tickets, and think I know the answer to this, but it's been awhile since I've launched a live Joomla site and I'd like to be sure.
I've developed a site in a sub-directory of a domain, and would like to keep it there, as is. I want to make a copy in another sub-directory of the same domain, to offer access to it to others for testing. After testing, I'd like to move/copy that site to the domain's main public directory.
I see, per the documentation and past tickets, that restoring from the main public directory to a sub-directory is a bad idea (and that you recommend using a subdomain instead).
However, I think that making a copy in another sub-directory will work OK - Is that correct? (I've done this before w/o trouble, but it's been awhile).
I think I also understand that when I move a copy to the public directory, the original site copies in both sub-directories will experience issues (i.e., from nesting .htaccess files), but that the site in the main directory will be OK. Is that correct?
Thank you!
Sam
