I feel really, really stupid asking this.. but how do i publish to localhost to have a real test running? Maybe the question is.. where are the files saved in the local machine, so i can move them to the wamp server??:rolleyes:
Take that back.. found files.. but how to get the store to run on wamp would be nice to know.. just for testing, not a live store.

editing.. Maybe a test run with that php file I have seen referenced in these forums.. where is that test file located?

Reply to my own post..lol. I ended up loading up to one of my servers, then down loading it back to wamp. It works, but maybe there is an easier way. Or maybe this should be a feature.

The best was do to this is to go to the File Menu > Export > Export Shop for Upload. This will generate all the cart files needed to process your shop.

Thank you! your a gem, it would have took me 10 times to find that. I looked in the document but didn't see it. I just installed Filezilla-server :rolleyes: but don't have it's addresses workin yet. I always make things harder than they are.. :(
Now I can get back to the theme stuff.
I did get it runin on wamp and no surprises, no issues.. all works well. Hooked to google and paypal test as well..
I found the server check file...you had a post about the url here in the forum

Thanks again, will be testing it for you... a friend needs a small store in a week..
