Running 5.2.5
In the interest to save some down time. I set up a dev site so I can make sure everything is working and to where I need it. I've modified templates, and custom mods. In that time the live site has still be in use, and the users and posts, as well as usergroups and ranks have been changed.
My question is, what tables would be required so that I could just run the upgrade on our live site, and then move the users, nodes, usergroups and ranks over to the dev site. Make sure all works properly still. And then just copy the files, and DB over to live. Instead of running through all the processes of customizing everything again.
There is the obvious: user, userfield, nodes, usergroup, ranks
Or is there another way that is more efficient, that won't overwrite templates.
Is it easier to move over the templates and such?
