I have been searching for a way to sync production sites with a development sites by pulling and pushing data from one site to the other while not overwriting required changes on the site receiving data.<\/p>\n
For example if I have a live site accepting user signups, posts, comments, images etc and a development site, I can pull data down and make both the same, then make changes to the dev site but when I go to push the changes back up to the productiion site I would end up overwrite any addtional changes made on the live site while working on the dev site.<\/p>\n
Generally I use Duplicator to move sites from place to place.
\nI also recently found WP Migrate DB Pro however as with the duplicator this also overwrites data on the receiving site.<\/p>\n
While both of these plugins are awesome, they don’t do what I for one would really like to find and use. Any info on this subject in the forum etc appears to be well outdated.<\/p>\n
If there is a way to accomplish what I have described above please fill me in on what I am missing and direct me to the solution.<\/p>\n
It doesn’t have to be a plugin, however it would be rather awesome if it was.<\/p>\n
How does wordpress.org and wordpress.com manage this sort of thing?<\/p>\n
Surely there is a way without manually going through massive databases to compare data etc.<\/p>\n
