i have to make some updates to a web site built using expression engine. There is no staging area available so i’d like to create a test area of the web site accessible only to site owners allowing them to preview the changes.
Ordinarily, i’d just create a “test” folder and direct the users to this URL. I’m new to Expression Engine and not sure how to achieve this. Any help would be much appreciated.
You can just create a new template group and templates (e.g., “section_test”), direct them there to preview, and then change the template/group names to the proper names once you’re ready to launch.
As an additional layer of security, you can add HTTP authentication to this test template.
