Well - that depends on how the changes effect their updating...if it's
purely a database design issue - you can figure out how to alter the
database and then write a .sql file that excutes everything you need and
then just run it on the server...if the changes to the database structure
affect the usage of the content inputters you have to tell your client that
there's a bigger problem and what fixing it entails...and that this was a
design problem from the start.
If they aren't willing to do what it takes to fix it - that's on them - but
JUST changing the database design can be done quickly if the sql query is
written properly
