Ryan Boyd Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Hello guys, I'm new to developing plugins and applications. Is there a way I can install forums and develop stuff offline? I have a localhost server (machine) as well as virtual machine running on my other PC. Need a solution so I can start Best regards UKF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sipofwater Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 You can install using <IPBlicensekey>-TESTINSTALL for the license key. You are allowed one test installation as per the licensing agreement. You can either make a copy of your production server (export the database and download your source files) or do a fresh install on your local machine. Are your local servers WAMP based? It's been about a decade since I have developed on a WAMP server but learned there were a lot of differences between running the same code on a WAMP vs a LAMP server. Not sure if this is still the case anymore or if anyone can comment if this is still the case?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
