create a new installable zip from a ( already inst

问题:

I've Joomla 1.7 and lots of component in it.

I'd like to make a "reverse-engineering" of the install of a component.

I've edited most part of it and i'd like to repack this to install in a new fresh Joomla installation.

Any idea?

thanks!

It's fairly straight forward - you download all the related files then zip them up with a new XML manifest. Of course you have to make sure that you get all of the files because they can be located in a couple different places. Luckily, the Joomla documentation has a basic list of all the files you would find in a component.
