Redesigning my e-shop

Hello,

I am in the process of getting my website redesigned. We have a new design already drawn up but I need to know if it is possible to save a copy of this in the e-shop and make changes to it as we see it without changing the live site until we are completely ready to cut over to the new design.

 

Can anyone/BT advise if this can be done and if so, how ?

 

Thanks,

Paula

Hi paula,

 

You can certainly do this. Simply duplicate your new design and you'll be free to work on it completely independent of your 'live' design. Nav to Design -> My Styles -> Style -> Duplicate. You can then edit it by clicking the 'start design editor' and activate it by clicking the 'set visible' button.

 

Hope thats clear, Orchie.

Orchie, I have (for now anyway) one other question. I have made a back up copy of the site and am working away on making all the changes. When it is ready to cutover, and I make this new version visible, do I need to do anything with the domain name..or should everything just stay as before ? Regards, Paula www.kittyandpolly.co.uk

Hi Paula, no you don't have to do anything else. Once you change the design everything will work as before. Orchie
