  • I think you should read up a little about Joomla. No CMS stores content in files as it less secure and would be a major hassle. – Lodder Dec 07 '12 at 12:15

Joomla! uses a database to store all content.

Apart from media files, log files, tmp files and maybe cache, Joomla! does not store anything else in files / folders.

Maybe you can expose your problem more clearly. What do you want to do exactly?

  • I need to modify a site which i did 3 months back.Lot of content has been added by the administrator within these months.I plan to download only the new and modified files,import the database, and work on local server.So relevant change occurs only in "media" folder.right? @ Valentin Despa – Arun Unnikrishnan Dec 07 '12 at 13:34

    Just work with the current version. If you need to see which files changed, get both versions of the website (yours and the current) and compare them with a tool like [WinMerge] http://www.winmerge.org/ – Valentin Despa Dec 07 '12 at 19:17
