Not sure what you mean.
Update and teststage are 2 different pair of shoes ..
Do you want to update, or do you want to develop (something new)?

It all depends on your skills. I can do everything live and don't even remember when I had to restore a backup. Everything can be fixed without too much hassle.
But in general you can create a test instance, do everything you need and then make it live. That's it, as simple as it gets.

One great Tool to test OpenCart is the Productsgenerator. One can fill up a
TestShop with any amount of differently 'random-configured' products, to
find out, if everything, related to Display and Sales, works flawless, from the
Admin Side, down to the final email Sales confirmation. And all that for a
lousy 20 US-Bucks ...

My Github OC Site: https://github.com/IP-CAM
5'200 + FREE OC Extensions, on the World's largest private Github OC Repository Archive Site.
Once you've installed Opencart on your server and its live on your domain that would be the production version.
But for example, if you want to install a new extension you would test it on your local development environment, then if it works, try it on your staging environment like staging.myopencartstore.com. If it works, then you would update the live store.
Is this a typical workflow you guys would use?
Alright maybe it is best to keep it simple. But has anybody tried containers like using Docker?thekrotek wrote: ↑Fri Jan 17, 2020 5:04 amIt all depends on your skills. I can do everything live and don't even remember when I had to restore a backup. Everything can be fixed without too much hassle.

Yes, that should be done always in that way (would prevent a massive amount of users here reporting needless errors ..).redmail wrote: ↑Sat Jan 18, 2020 7:58 pmOnce you've installed Opencart on your server and its live on your domain that would be the production version.

But not many are working this way - the hell knows why.
Not to forget: never install something and do not use it further.
Or install, use it once and then never.
Always try to keep your system as clean as possible.
