So clearly making posts on Staging works. But of course if I make a post on the live site directly it is going to get overwritten and lost. So that means there has to be a process when making a change:

1. Make a taging copy of the live site.
2. Make edits and test.
3. Push to live.

I also need to check what happens about other changes e.g.

• Changing versions of plugins
• Changing versions of themes / different theme.
• Adding a plugin.
• Adding a page.
• Editing a page.
• Adding media to the media library.
• Changing menus.

If that all works then just maybe we have a working process!

This is a simple post made on the staging site prior to pushing to live.

Will it work, who can tell…….,
Maybe it is magic and I’ll be under it’s spell
But given what I tend to find,
That WP has a wicked mind,
It will all go to rats and I’ll be in hell!

This is a simple post made on the live site prior to creating a staging site as part of testing the process.

Develop Version Testing

This post was written following the installation of the version on the Oak Lodge Services Development Laptop.

There is just a chance that this new post to the wordpress site will show up on Facebook. I’ll be amazed if that happens!
