Could try and run a mirror database then merge and test any additional files you are adding on a test folder or locally.

Man, one of my sites had to shut down for maintenance then it would be down 20 hours in 5 days (we did work this out). So we just used a process which mirrors then updates. Easy stuff

With respect Wolfie, you have no idea what I was doing so please dont presume you do.

I do know exactly what Im doing, I consider every action and reaction, dont you worry about that.

I am 100% positive that the downtime was 100% successful and was totally worth it. I know what I did you see, that makes it easy stuff for me .
