Hello, I have a development site that I am using to test and work on a theme to upload to our production site. I have copied over the theme directory to the production server. My question is: do I need to recreate the views and blocks? I cant use backup and migrate to the new site because the content on the prod site is newer. Just making sure I am not missing a step. Thanks

blocks you have to set again in administer -> blocks
views can be exported from dev and imported to prod

Have you tried features module. I don't know if it will work for blocks and views, but typically it allows admin configuration stuff to be exported into code which makes things easier to move form server to server. Also form what I understand it's possible to export views (http://drupal.org/project/views_data_export). Hope this helps.
