Ideally when upgrading, you leave your live site alone, build what will look like your new site, then make some changes to bring the new live site online. The specific details are addressed in other documents.
The only reason I thought it would be best would be to have the new site in say /shop_test/ and then it is easy to move it to the live store by simply changing the current live site directory to /shop_old/ and the new /shop_test/ to /shop/ (and changing the config files). No need to copy the new files to the root. Am I missing something? I currently have the redirect:
Code:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^MYDOMAIN\.com\.au$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.MYDOMAIN\.com\.au$
RewriteRule ^/?$ "http\:\/\/www\.MYDOMAINl\.com\.au\/store\/" [R=301,L]
Is this bad? I just don't know....
