We want to redesign the main part of our WordPress site, but there are many aspects we want to keep. We have Mailpoet plugins and other plugins – for which, we don’t want to lose emails, databases, etc…
Is there any way to launch a redesign of WordPress, where we leave the current site the same, while we work on the redesign…. but we don’t completely switch to a completely new installation, and lose all the other moving parts (plugins, users, etc)?
Ideally, there’s a way to do this… and when we’re ready, we click a button to switch to the new site, without having to start fresh, migrating databases, etc…
Any thoughts on this?

Take a backup and work on it on localhost until you’re ready to replace.
