Your site and Aegir

@TODO:

Explain some of the unique features of Aegir in how it manages a site, from a backend perspective:

  • /files/ alias, to avoid images breaking on migrate/clone
  • the cloaked credentials in settings.php for security
  • permissions on files and directories
  • .htaccess and why it is ignored / how to read-in changes of a .htaccess into the platform vhost
  • the drushrc.php
Need help?

Documentation

The notebook section provides a way for you to store and share information with your group members. With the book feature you can:

  • Add book pages and organize them hierarchically into different books.
  • Attach files to pages to share them with others.
  • Track changes that others have made and revert changes as necessary.
  • Archive books that are no longer of interest to the group. Archived books can be reactivated later if needed.

The revisions let you track differences between multiple versions of a post.
