Syncing prod version to dev version

  • Hello,

    I took over a new website and just realized that people have been coding/making changes on the prod version and the dev version has been untouched since the beginning. Is there a way for me to sync the prod to dev?

    Thanks.

  • There is no general answer to this question. There are countless ways to run a live and a dev system in parallel. Can you see which techniques were used in your case? If not, I would recommend that you contact the people who set this up.

    Hello @luvu11

    To sync your production site to the development environment, first, back up both the production and development sites. Copy all files from the production server to the dev environment and export/import the production database. After that, update the database URLs to match the dev environment using tools like WP-CLI or phpMyAdmin. Finally, check .htaccess and wp-config.php for any environment-specific settings, and test the dev site thoroughly.
