    I'm not going to have the time and energy to maintain two different versions of my site. Does anybody want the existing Evo documentation? There's a number of articles and demos, as well as the MODx From the Inside series of articles on how Evo works.

    I can back up the whole site, or just the resources, if anybody wants to take it.

      Hello Susan,
      If you don't get a better offer I'm happy to host & keep the whole shooting match up on my dedicated server.
      I assume it would need a new domain name.
      Regards,
      David Bunker

          Susan,
          Please move your Evo site to other webspace and point it to another domain. If needed I will gladly offer webspace and a (sub)domain. It will serve for the Evo user group. Else, a backup of the whole site would be great, you could make it available as a zipped download, same for all the Evo documentation, articles, demos, modx from the inside and the articles on how Evo works. Greetings, Brian.

            I would also be happy to host this if the assets folder and a db dump was available.

              Here's the whole site including a database dump; the database info in the config.inc.php file has been x'ed out.

                Thanks Susan, this is going to speed up my evo learning curve. I owe you one for this download. But what is the reason that made you move on to revo ? Eventually being left out from the modx train ? Why not wait for modx-3 and then make the move ? I'm not the expert here, but my reasons to stay with evo are kiss architecture, faster manager and interface speed, will never have a project exceeding the 5000 pages limit, easy permissions. What about in general being productive with revo ? Is this better than with evo ? Greetings Brian.

                    I'll also be addressing this in a presentation at the MODxpo in the Netherlands in November.

                      Susan, I installed your backup on my laptop with xampplite and can successfully login with guest and guestuser. I had to wait 5 minutes for being able to login as there was a message that an upgrade was in progress. Right now only the homepage ( localhost/sottwell/ ) shows up in my browser. All the other pages don´t show up in my browser and throw an error "object not found error 404" I have limited privileges to edit. How do I login as a full admin and have all the privileges ? Do I have to hack the database for that ?
