Is there a right and wrong approach to editing published pages?

Nope as long as you have a copy of the pre-edited page in case shit and fan become friends after the edit.

I agree with keeping a copy until the edited page is checked for errors.TheButcher wrote: ↑November 24th, 2019, 8:09 am

Now a days just in the WP editor, when I used to do it on ftp the changes would not show up in the editor.

How many here were around when we were using Frontpage 98 and it added all sort of unwanted ascii characters to pages

Yeah, editors like Front Page back then added a lot of fat code. Pre-CSS days.

Never used this Frontpage98, so can not comment, was it the popular one at the time for editing like Notepad is today.
