Localhost Installation

Its a pity that we cannot install Sendy on localhost. How else can we modify the layout - production servers take a procedure to hit and deploy to... its not a "SAVE" - its a deploy and it affects the logged in users - switching servers and load balancers... phew!

Hi,

Here's how you can run Sendy on your localhost:

Create an A record in your DNS (eg. localhost.yourdomain.com) and point it to your local IPv4 address. Here's how to find your local IPv4 address:

Mac: http://www.wikihow.com/Find-Your-IP-Address-on-a-Mac
Windows: http://www.wikihow.com/Find-the-IP-Address-of-Your-PC

Once done, you can access an address like http://localhost.yourdomain.com/sendy (if Sendy's files are in /sendy/ folder of course) and it will load Sendy from your local computer.

Thanks.

Best regards,
Ben
