PHPRunner General questions

I am testing version 11 (PHPRunner 11.3.44417).

I created a simple project, created custom CSS for two pages, and made some adjustments to those pages (modifying the HTML code in the Style tab).

When exporting the project using the "Export project" function, a ZIP file is generated.

However, when using this ZIP file on another computer running the same version of PHP, the custom CSS settings and the layout (template) of the two pages do not appear.

The events are present, and the pages created in Design mode are also correct.

Any help?

When exporting a PHPRunner project and then importing it on another computer, there can be a few potential reasons why your custom CSS settings and layout modifications are not appearing as expected. Here are some troubleshooting steps and considerations to help resolve the issue:

  1. Check Export Options: Ensure that you have selected all necessary options when exporting your project. Sometimes, certain files (like custom CSS) may not be included if specific options are not checked.


  2. Custom Files: If you have added custom CSS files directly to the project, make sure they are included in the export. Verify that any custom files (like images, JavaScript, or additional CSS files) are actually being exported in the ZIP file.


  3. File Paths: Verify that the paths to your custom CSS files in the HTML or in the project settings are correct. If the paths are absolute or depend on specific directory structures, they may not work on the new computer unless those structures are replicated.


  4. Re-apply Customizations: After importing the project on the new computer, manually check the Style tab for each page and ensure that your custom CSS is correctly applied. You might need to reapply or re-import any specific settings.


  5. Browser Cache: Sometimes, changes may not appear due to browser caching. Clear your browser cache or try accessing the pages in an incognito window to see if the changes appear.


  6. Check for Errors: Look for any error messages in the browser's developer console that might indicate issues with loading your CSS or other resources.


  7. Project Configuration: Ensure that all project configurations are identical on both machines, including PHP version and server settings, as differences may affect how styles are rendered.


  8. Documentation & Support: If none of the above steps work, refer to the PHPRunner documentation or forums for guidance. There may be specific details or known issues related to your version (11.3.44417) that could provide additional insights.


  9. Test on Localhost: If you’re testing on a local server, ensure that the server configuration matches the original environment where you created the project.


  10. Manual Backup: As a last resort, consider manually copying over the custom CSS files and any modified HTML templates directly from the original project folder to the new environment.



By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the issue and successfully transfer your custom styles and layouts to the new computer.

You need to contact support directly sending your export file. Issues like are impossible to troubleshoot without seeing the exact export.
