3 Essentials Connection Strings

I am working locally but hosting remotely (3 essentials 4g plan). I am unclear on the connections strings I need inorder to have data in my local instance when I run Rock locally. This is probably a noob question and for that I apologize.

    Hi Michael,

    Thanks for asking.  Based on the knowledgebase article here: http://knowledge.3essentials.com/web-hosting/article/1143/DNN-Connection-Strings.html you will need to have a connection string that looks like this one:

    connectionString="Server=db1.3essentials.com;Database=DBNAME;uid=DBUSERID;pwd=DBPASSWORD;"

    There are some extended answers regarding which database server to use in the above connectiong string here: http://knowledge.3essentials.com/web-hosting/article/246/support.asp 

    I hope that helps?
