I have a cms and public facing website built in rails that pulls in an XML file (from another system) every hour that contains all our product data. But once in a while, the marketing team might want to override certain fields in order to display them differently on the website. For example, they may want to alter the name of a product without doing it in the other system.
So what I'd like to do is create "override" fields for most of my normal fields. That way, marketing could update a product in the CMS without their changes being wiped out every hour. But I'd like to do this in a way that I don't have to manually create every single override field in migrations and the accompanying UI to modify the field.
Does anyone know of a plugin that does something similar or have any ideas about a good method to solve this problem?
Thanks!
