I'm trying to get all of the modules I would like to use installed before setting up my products. So far all I have accomplished is getting SSL working, a theme installed and a couple modules like one to back up the MySQL database.
I got Super Orders installed and plan to do Edit orders as well as some of the compatible modules like USPS click-n-ship.
These modules say in the instructions:
I already did the Super Orders install without any comparison, but now I am wondering if I am going to mess something up when I do Edit Orders.As with ANY module, any files which override existing cart files should be merged using a tool like Winmerge or Beyond Compare before you install the module.
Regardless of what program I use.. what am I even looking for when I compare? What do I need to be careful of?
To go even further, I would like to.. once I have all these crucial modules installed, but before I have really branded my theme or added much in the way of products, back up the whole configuration so I could use it again.. without having to manually install all these modules. How would I pull this off? I've been in the /admin/includes/configure.php and noticed the information on MySQL database and such, but what other files might differ and need to be changed?
Another thing that seems like a good idea is having a development setup on a subdomain.. it seems like the same sort of ideas would matter since I want to do that. Thanks all for help =)
