Pull Live website to Dev site and Sync the Media Files and Blog Post

[Kathleen]

Hi, 

I would like to inquire if anyone already had a solution in pulling the live website into the dev site and sync the media files and blogposts.  Or replicating the processwire website without breaking it.

 

Thanks,

Kathleen

Hi Kathleen! Welcome to the forums.

For the blogposts pages content, you need to import the database from the server. But for the assets (files folder inside templates/assets/) there's a technique to get them using hooks like Ryan shows on his post: https://processwire.com/blog/posts/pw-3.0.137/

This is really cool - hadn't seen this tutorial before.
