Create a new Cloud site
The following requirements must be met before you can use this site type:
- You must have selected (“Settings -> Cloud”) and authorized a cloud provider.
- The cloud provider must store data from a site that is not currently assigned to any other site.
-
Click the “+” button at the bottom of the sites list, and then select the “Cloud” site type in the following dialog box.
-
Confirm your selection by clicking on the “Continue” button.
-
In the first step on the next page, select the site data from your cloud provider that you want to add to the new site. All available site data is listed in the “Import from” drop-down list.
-
For the “Site folder”, first create the new “my-site” folder and then select it.
Note: Do not create a site folder under your “/Applications/MAMP” folder. A better location for your site folders would be “~/Sites/”. This will keep your site data separate from the MAMP PRO application data.
-
Confirm your selection by clicking on the “Create Site” button. All data will now be downloaded from your cloud provider and added to your new site. This process may take several seconds. Please be patient.
-
The settings for your new site are saved automatically and the servers and services are restarted automatically if necessary.
-
To open your new site in your default browser, click on the “Open” button to the right of the site name field.
