I am wonder what is the best by to go about this. I currently have Umbraco 4.0.4.2 running on my local host and I have 4.5.1 running on my hosted server. I am wanting to know what is the best way to transfer all my content, doc types, xslt, database, and ext from my localhost to my hosted server.
You need to upgrade your 4.04.2 running on local host to 4.5.1 else you will get errors or downgrade your live instance to 4.04.2. Then you just copy over your website to live and take a back of the db and restore on live then update the web.config to point to your live db server.
@Ismail Mayat , I am using umbraco 7.4.1 on my localhost as well as server.
I have made some changes on my local host added some pages ,doctypes etc.
Do I need to take the backup of the database or should I just paste the dlls and views etc on the server and umbraco will take care of the db by its own?
