I run a bustling news website with a plethora of content being published daily. Currently, I am neck-deep in the process of rebranding and redesigning the site to keep it fresh and engaging.
I have a staging site setup where all the redesign magic happens before it sees the light of day on the live (production) site.
My hosting service provides a straightforward ‘staging to prod’ tool, which is good but it essentially pushes the entire staging site to production. The hiccup here is, the staging site doesn’t sync the live site’s content. So, if I were to use the tool now, it would overwrite all the latest articles on the production site, which is a huge no-no.
What I am aiming for is a selective migration where I can seamlessly transfer the design changes, plugins, and pages from staging to production without disturbing the existing media and posts.
Alternatively, finding a way to keep the posts in sync between the two would also be a solid solution.
I am reaching out to this knowledgeable community for suggestions on plugins or methods that could assist in achieving this. I should mention, I am not a developer nor an expert in this domain, so I am really counting on the wisdom of the experts here to guide me through this maze.
Your kindness and guidance will be highly appreciated. Thank you in advance for taking the time!
