In the past, I've always edited all my sites live; wasn't too concerned about my 2 visitors seeing an error message. However, there may come a day when I get more than 2 visitors.

In the manual it says using models in a component is discouraged, but the other way of doing it would mean I'd be repeating code in the controller. The component basically analyses a load of data from various sourc...
