    Greetings!
    I installed modx in local using xampp. Now I decided to upload my work via ftp.
    How should I upload it together its packages, chunks and snippets? Is that possible? I want to upload everything I did.

    Thank you in advance.

        Thank you very much. I'm in a process of transferring..but can you help me understand what does this mean?


        Don't Forget the Database
        MODX stores some path data in its database! When you move servers, you may have to update the workspaces table, otherwise the manager page may show a white page.

          When you installed Modx you would have created a database for it, you will need to login to PHPMyAdmin on your localhost and export your database, then on your hosting account create a new database and import your database into it.

          As far as I remember you no longer have to edit the workspaces table so don't worry about that bit.

            I uploaded and extracted it already, Is it correct to access my files in mysitename.edu/modx? what if I want to see it as www.sitename.edu ?is that possible?

            And how to keep my data secured from hacking?
