Redesign existing site....best way?
Hey all, I have a client that would like to have their current TXP driven site completely redesigned. Their current site has to stay live during the redesign and the new site needs to access the same database/articles, etc.
What do you think is the best way to do this? I have a few ideas but nothing that really strikes me as brilliant, how would you tackle this task?
Thanks!

I did everything on a local copy with mysqldump and then reversed process …
For safety I would use a “NEW” prefix for all tables .. so you can switch between the two if some error happens.

I would say to make use of this plugin instead; makes backup and restoring much easier. :)
