creating a wordpress dev enviornment and uploading to production -


i old school java developer considering using wordpress. i'm used developing locally on pc (yeah yeah not mac) , ftping files production environment on remote server. high level review of wordpress gives me impression typically there no concept of lower environments , updates occur directly in production. case? if not, can explain how 1 goes uploading files web site?

thanks,

jeff

wordpress database driven, doesn't rely on cumulative process of building new html pages every addition or revision, in dreaweaver or similar. core files in wp deployment merely shell content database "hooked" in display.

you can, however, setup local environment development purposes using wamp or mamp (mac). process of transferring site production matter of ftp-ing whole shebang, , modifying local database in says "http://localhost/testsite" changed "http://foamfrogs.com" or whatever. upload hosting service's db server. it's bit tricky, once few times, becomes routine.

there few products out there can automate process:

backup buddy: http://pluginbuddy.com/ serverpress: http://serverpress.com/

i haven't used ether of these because i'm cheap , doing things long stupid way sometimes, might worth if have high volume of work , need streamlined workflow. - steve
