Re: Drupal or Wordpress deployment

Bryce, I got shut out of my own wordpress site when I installed and
activated a new theme which didn't function properly. I was just starting
with wordpress, so now, if I go beyond activating modules and creating
content I will want to do that on my dev site. If I were creating or
modifying a theme how should I go about that? Download all of prod to dev
plus the database? And after testing what do I need to upload?

Dave,
If you are only going to be using themes and plugins then you can test
that stuff locally on your pc. Once you have tested in different browsers
locally and tested plugin functionality you can load them on the
production site. Heck, with Wordpress you can activate/deactivate plugins
and themes so easily that it literally takes seconds to revert back to the
previous theme. Most of my customers only have a production site and the
designer uses a local copy for testing themes.

Re: [WEB400] Drupal or Wordpress deployment






But with Drupal or Wordpress, I'll be changing themes, adding
functionality
by activating plugins or modules. I won't know what to promote from my dev
site to prod site.

In our case, we usually create subdomains and separate install folders

for

each web product,
e.g.
Production: www.example.com
Dev: dev.example.com

Folders on the server:
Production: /www/drupal
Dev: /dev/drupal

Then we synchronize the changes from the dev folder to the production
folder, and of course we never modify code directly on production

folders.

Hi all,

Just wondered if anyone's using Drupal or Wordpress and how you are

going

about taking your production site to development, to staging and then

back

to production. I mean, how do you know what get's modified exactly? In

my

case I will probably just have my development server and no staging

site.

Thanks.
