Once you have them the way you like them, recreate the feature on dev and push that code to staging. Once it's on staging, visit the Features admin page. One or more of your features on staging should now be marked as overridden. You should revert this feature (which is a little confusing) which will update your database to reflect the changes reflected in the new feature code. If all goes well, repeat on prod. ...I'll update my answer to reflect this when I have a minute. | |

| Dec 10, 2013 at 19:23 | comment | added | blue928 | I did not have Dev or Staging before this project, no. But now, I do - dev, stage, production. I can immediately see the benefit, and I'm assuming this is why Features is so attractive? To not have to manually re-add content types and configurations for each phase? So then, in point 3 above, you mean "Yes" in that I use the UI on the dev server, and then reexport the code to be passed on to staging and production? (What I had originally meant was can I / should I add fields directly to staging / production, bypassing features altogether) | |
