Important Notes: Staging needs to be done while the LIVE site is in MTCE mode. Otherwise use Cloning. An ongoing live site changes such as additions of products, orders, etc will be lost in staging push back. |
Important Notes: You also need to reinstall WHY2 extension license code by replacing the development license code with live license code after staging push back. |
