I am trying to create a copy of a prestashop 1.6 e-shop for development purposes from domain.com to dev.domain.com
The process I followed is
For prestashop 1.7 you have to modify some values in the database:
– ps_configuration table and change PS_SHOP_DOMAIN and PS_SHOP_DOMAIN_SSL to your new domain name, e.g. mydomain.com
– ps_shop_url table and change again ‘domain’, ‘domain_ssl’ fields to your new domain name and ‘physical_uri’. If you copied files into root folder, the path will be simply ‘/’.
