Thankyou so much for running through this so clearly and quickly!
I have been banging my head against so many brick walls trying to find a simple explanation and step by step as to how to migrate from local to Remote.
Amazing! x x x x x x
Well, I apologize, I do answer all emails I receive but I have to get it before I can answer. I got 5 of them just today from the screencast. I searched for your handle in my email and could not find anything (except the notice for this comment) Which email did you use? and how long ago? Maybe it was flagged as Spam. use this email:
conticreative @ (and then add the google mail service at the end).
Thanks.
Emailed you but you never replied
