TWiki Plugins |
| To test new Plugins on your installation before making them public, you may want to use one of these two approaches:
- Method 1: Safely test on-the-fly by creating separate Production and Test branches in your live TWiki installation.

- Test Plugins and other new features in the Test installation until you're satisfied.
-
If you modify topics using the new features, live users will likely see unfamiliar new META tags showing up on their pages - to avoid this, create and edit test-only topics to try out new features.
- Copy the modified files to the Production installation. You can update a TWiki installation live and users won't even notice.
