Navigation Menu in Cloned blog links back to old blog

Having the same problem, cloned site links to old site. Any suggestions?

Martin

you would have to update site_url on phpmyadmin did you do a proper search and replace on your DB ?

Hi Robin,

So far I just cloned the site with “installatron”. I have a working wordpress site in https://www.sitename/wp. Now I want a testsite (clone) in https://www.sitename/test/wp.
When I install a search & replace plugin, can I just search for sitename/wp and replace with sitename/test/wp?
I don’t want to screw things up ??

i havnt used installatron but does this mean that both your site are using same database ?

No, there are 2 different installations of WordPress, database_wp1 and database_wp2.

so which ever the database is setup for your cloned site, use a DB script to search and replace

backup before doing so though

Hi Robin,
I used search & replace, but links still did not work, although when hovering the mouse over the links, the path seemed correct.
After some more reading in this forum I changed the permalinks from “year-month-day-name” to “standard”
Problem solved!

Thanks for your help!

cool
