Why do we require your staging site details?

We require staging site details because it is against our company policy to debug on live sites due to several issues that may occur. We advise you to create a staging environment that replicates your production site in order to debug or install and test new features.

Why do we require FTP/SFTP details?

Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) is a network protocol that ensures the secure transfer, access and management of large files and sensitive data. This is a security measure put in place to protect your files. We require this access to debug and resolve the issue you are experiencing securely. 

Do you need a staging site, and why do you need a staging site?

A staging site is not compulsory but would benefit a business if you want to test your system or website before using the live site. Many e-Commerce stores use different APIs, and there are instances where some need to work better together. By not having a staging environment, you will not be able to test additional features on your site, and it would cause a problem for your end user/client.

Benefits of staging environments:

  • Conduct tests in isolation
  • Make use of the same features/APIs as the production
  • Continuously updating
  • Eliminate Bugs before deploying to the live environment.
How can I create a staging site?
  • WooCommerce: https://wp-staging.com/
  • Shopify: This does not require a staging site; collab access must be granted.
