Hi,

I do not know if this is the correct category...

A Dynamicweb client wants us to explore the possibility to have a website in a pre-productio phase for approval and only afterwards publish the changes. This cannot be done by the Drafts/Workflow/Version Control because:
- changes also apply to the news module
- changes also apply to eCommerce products and groups
- changes also apply to eCommerce shipping, payment, discounts settings

How could I achieve this? My thought was to synchronize two databases, except for the statistics tables, ecomOrders and other similar tables. Any brilliant thoughts?

Sounds like some heavy logic thats needed.

I imagine you would use the status of the differentiating pages in the "draft" database, and then only publish changes in the synchronize to the pages who got publish status.

But you then need to check ALL modules/settings which could relate to that ...And what if page A and B share does settings, and you only want to publish A?

Hi Marco,

Yes, those questions are relevant and I have though of them as well. I need to at least warn the client of the problems.

Thanks for the input.
