<font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">Hi Bill,<br>
<br>
I actually wrote a post about how I did a big module/core update
of Drupal Mill a few days ago. It includes all the steps I took
and might give you some ideas on how to use the backup and Migrate
module to do this. See

Hi. I am pondering the best way to modify and test my site without
corrupting my live site. Currently, I ftp all of the files and db
tables to my local computer and use MAMP to run my development
site. But, since my live site is changing every day from users
creating accounts, etc, how should I set this up so that when I
upload my development site to the live one, it stays current?<br>
<br>
I'm sure this problem has been solved, but ....<br>
Regards,<br>
Bill<br>
