I believe, when you work on eShop, you only work on one version of the site which is live.  Ideally you should have a Work In Progres version which you can "Publish" to become live and then continue making changes to it without it effecting the live site.

 

The option of "closing" the online shop while you make changes is ridiculous - the whole point was to have a 24/7 site.

 

A non-live working progress version would allow the site owner to completley revamp his site wth product structures, colour schemes, page formats etc without effect his day to business......or tell me i have it wrong?

Hello whoknows, This is already possible with the eShop. Go to Design -> My Styles and duplicate (Create backup copy) the style that is currently active in your shop. Now you can work on this copy and preview the result using the link to the shop page or the link "View in Web site" in the list of "My Styles". Sincerely
