Yummy is now , for me, an essential tool of my everyday work as it proove to be better, faster and more reliable than Dreamweaver to synchronize a server, Thanks.
I work mostly on my localhost and synchronize on servers, sometimes for certain sites I go from servers to local, no errors, no problems, tons of possibilities, work without flaws. I’m use to take Dreamweaver to do the job but inconsistency and overlook folder and files render that expensive software unusable for FTP Transfers.
I like to have some input for another high point that Yummy probably can acheive....
I work mostly on Joomla base sites. The are heavily modified and for me and probably a lot of Joomla, Drupal, Wordpress webmaster we need to do upgrade of our installations from time to time. This involve dowloading the upgrade patch that contain all the folders with the new versions files that we have to manually update. This can take hours and result sometime in costly mistake as we have to pinpoint what files was wrongly change or misplace.
And if you work with lot of site this become a serious part my work time....
The ideal scenario will be to synchronize the upgrade patch ( all folders are a mirror of a clean Joomla install with only the files that need to be add or replace) with my local sites.
That will be really cool when you think I have sometime more than 10 sites to updates at a time.....
All my sites are situated on a MAMP/WAMP local server, my idea was to symply create a Yummy synchro with the folder containing the upgrade patch an synchronize toward the targeted to upgrade site (Local), no deletion of files or folders only replace files, add new folders and files (rare).
If I can do that that will be fantastic.... I will try this week...
Do you have any hints or suggestions on this?
