Hi Xoopizens,
This is probably my 4th hosting company is the last one year. To avoid much effect on my website i have almost decided to have website hosted with 2 diffrent hosting companies (probably in diffrent country) this will keep my uptime of the site.
I would like to know would it work with XOOPS site as there will be lot of posting of comments and article on the site will this be updated on both the servers.
Is any doing this at the moment?
Could someone advise me what would be the best solution?
Thank you in advance for your response.

I am thinking of parking the domain and then using just change of site name it may help in making better and faster change than re designing or transfer of the site.
any suggestions.

Thanks a lot monty.
Actually my site name is indiamachineshop.com and is ranking 1 in major search engines but i want the site to rank for machine tools, so i took one more domain www.machinetoolworld.com
Since i made all the developments on indiamachineshop i cannot redirect just machinetoolworld here what i want to do is copy all the site www.indiamachineshop.com to www.machinetoolworld.com then redirect indiamachineshop to machinetoolworld
Hope u understand what i want to convey.
can some1 tell me how to do it

Hi Xoopizens,
I have 2 XOOPS sites both loaded with lot of Modules, I would like to know how do i take back-up of complete site with SQL database.
I have messed up the site couple of time and both the times i did not back-up SQL (I have taken back-up of site thru FTP) i am not sure if it back-ups SQL data.
Is there any standard practice of taking complete back-up including modules.
Also please mention the procedure of putting the site back if in case something goes wrong.

Guys... Hold on I think we need to dedicate this forum just to discuss on how the present XOOPS as it is can be made popular. Of course I don’t mean here that the drawbacks of XOOPS should be hidden yes it should be solved, and maybe a separate forum can be established where the new and existing users can discuss it.
Yes I do agree that the learning curve is there, but the solution is that maybe we just contact website developers who can take the job and do some jugglery. The support forum is there to support them initially. They themselves can evaluate XOOPS and other CMS.
Maybe everyone had some problems for the first installation but the second, third goes smooth. I think we all need to admit here that there too was a learning curve for Nuke and Mambo and so is it for other CMS.
This will give the development team more time and precise answer what the best can be done to make it more hassle free.
For out of the package installations probably we can have a hosting provider who could set the control panel such that XOOPS can be loaded without much trouble.
Simultaneously the XOOPS core team can work on how more XOOPS can be made popular.
Do something guys rather than just discussing at least make some efforts once the work is started the ways of improvement will always be opening up.
