Configure the servers for synchronization

To configure the source servers, from which synchronization data will be send, perform the following:

1. In the main menu, click Administration » Settings.
   The Basic settings page appears.
   If you have multisite license, click Global settings.
2. Click Site Sync.
   In Server(s) where to send data section a list of all added servers, if any, appears.
3. Click Add a server.
4. Enter the URL or the IP of the server where data will be sent.
   Enter username and password. These are the credentials of a user that exists on the server that you are going to synchronize with.
   

   IMPORTANT: In order for site synchronization to work, you must have created a special user on the server that you are going to sync data to. This user must be administrator, but also must be different then the default admin user. During synchronization, this user must not be logged in. As username and password, enter the credential of this user. For example, on the server you are going to sync to, create a user named sync and assign it to the administration role. During synchronization, make sure this user is logged out.

   NOTE: For enhanced security we highly recommend to configure SSL certificate for your target server and thus use encrypted connection between the servers while transferring data.

5. Click Save.
6. To edit the address of the server or the credentials, click Edit.
7. To delete a server, click Remove.
8. When finished adding servers, click Save changes.
