This document explains how to move the Product Designer App (PDA) module from one hosting environment to another, such as from a developer host to a live host.

Move Module Source Code #

First, copy the PDA module source code to the new host.

Steps:

1. Log in to cPanel
2. Open File Manager (or connect via FTP)
3. Navigate to the folder:
4. Root/modules/productdesignerapp
5. Copy and move this folder to the target host using the same directory path

Activate Module on New Host #

After moving the source code:

1. Go to Admin Panel
2. Navigate to Modules → Module Manager
3. Locate Product Designer App
4. Click Install

After activating the module, clear all site cache if any caching system is enabled.

Move PDA Module Data #

To move all PDA module data, you need to transfer both the database tables and the upload files.

Export Database #

Click Export to download the .sql file:

• Log in to cPanel
• Open phpMyAdmin
• Select the Prestashop database
• Search for tables with the prefix pda_
• Select the required tables
• Open the Export tab
• Choose the export format

Import Database #

1. Open phpMyAdmin on the target host
2. Select the target Prestashop database
3. Open the Import tab
4. Choose the downloaded .sql file
5. Click Import to import the data

Move Upload Files #

1. Log in to cPanel
2. Open File Manager (or connect via FTP)
3. Navigate to the folder:
4. Root/img/productdesignerapp
5. Copy and move this folder to the target host using the same directory path

Notes #

Clear cache after completing the migration to ensure the module works correctly.

The directory structure must remain unchanged on the new host.

Make sure the module is activated after all files and database tables are moved.
