    I use a domain to mess around with dif themes etc. A "sandbox" on a live server. I'm starting over again and always wondered if I should delete themes & directories etc etc before starting fresh with new theme. Extender vs Dynamik vs Genesis child theme or Genesis alone. So many odds n' ends like graphics from old site...

    I'm curious what anyone else does, or if you have any suggestions?
    Thanks!

    I usually put each test site on a subdomain so I can wipe it out easily later. I just can't stand the clutter on my server - I guess I'm a little OCD when it comes to knowing what files are where.

    That's a good idea Andrea. Maybe I'll try that next time.
    Someone else suggested "desktop server" which I may try as well... probably just mess around on server for the moment.
    🙂
    Thanks Andrea,
