    Replacing All Templates

    I am redesigning a website for a client. The content will all pretty much stay the same. My question is, can develop new templates / css / javascript on a development site, then copy all of the appropriate files over the existing site to update the look? Is there any danger to this approach?

    It should be fine so long as the template names/document types/property names stay the same. Testing on a copy of the client site before deploying would be a good plan!

    Hi Robert

    as tentonipete is saying you should be pretty safe as long as you don't change the documenttypes and remove properties etc. - if there is some html code in the XSLT files that you need to change be sure to make a copy of the XSLT in case you oversee something and something therefore brakes.

    Otherwise it's just a matter of making som new templates for the different document types and attach them to them.
