    Hi There,

    I’ve been trying to do research on how I can do this and searched through the forums but I haven’t really found an answer.

    I would like to set up a development area to test out a wordpress layout before pushing it live.
    So ideally I would like to have 2 sets of wordpress using the same database,
    one for my-domain.com
    and a duplicate of it dev.my-domain.com for testing before I upload or transfer my files to my-domain.com.

    Can someone please tell me how to do this?

    I believe all you’d need to do is install WordPress in both directories and edit the wp-config.php file so that the database information matches.

    Then they’ll share the same database.
