Hi,
I made a backup with "Default Backup Profile" and deployed it with "Site Transfer Wizard". Everything works fine and my local website is now online.
Now I made an incremental backup. How can I deploy this backup? The "Site Transfer Wizard" wants a full backup. I only want to deploy the site-changes to my live-server.
Thanks a lot for help
Daniel

You can transfer the incremental backup archive to the live server's root yourself e.g. by SFTP or FTP. Then there are two options:

1. Go to Akeeba Backup, Import and point it to your newly uploaded backup archive. Then go to Manage Backups, select the imported archive and click on Restore in the toolbar.

2. Upload kickstart.php (from Akeeba Kickstart Core) and access it with a browser to restore the backup archive you uploaded.

The second option is typically easier since you're already uploading the archive by (S)FTP.
