• Hi all,

    I’m using WordPress as a CMS to develop browser-based technical documentation for my company’s software products. The documentation will be shipped and installed on the client’s server as part of the software. The catch is that the client’s servers are firewalled and they don’t have internet access, which means everything must be installed locally on their localhost.

    I’ve installed WordPress on my own computer and am developing the content on my own localhost. When it comes time to deliver the documentation, do I need to install WordPress on the client’s server and copy the files across?
    Or can I get an export of the relevant pages and install them as plain HTML without requiring the WordPress platform?

    Is there a best practice around this?

    Thanks,
    Trish ??

  • If the documentation will be added/edited frequently (in the client’s server) it is better to migrate WordPress.

    If no changes are to be made you can use this plugin to generate static pages and send it to them.

    Thanks Jesin, I’ll give that plugin a shot.

    The documentation won’t be updated after installation. I tried the plugin but it didn’t work for me. I tried HT Track and it was OK except that search wouldn’t work.
