All user settings in database
Posted: Tue 11. May 2004, 15:55
I am real enthusiastic about PHPWCMS. Only the upgrade of the files gives me sometimes some frustrating moments.
At this moment, some settings are set within files at the server. I would like to have as much as possible settings in the database (except the database, user and password offcourse), but I know it is not done easy.
Is it possible to put all the files you change in a special folder, so I can delete all the files with FTP (except the special folder) and put the new release files up.
Is this possible? Now I had much problems with upgrading (the new features where so cool!).
Other option is to deliver an upgrade document where the average user is pointed at the specific files you have to backup before upgrading.
