Awesome

I thought I’d give this a try instead of cloning file and DB by hand and using a DB script to update. And I was pleasantly surprised – it worked fine.
OK after the duplication I got 500 errors, but that was just because I’d renamed the cpanel generated .htaccess and .user.ini files ahead of the process. Just merged in the former and put the latter back in place and it sprang into life. But if you’re playing with files like that and don’t know what they are there for then you shouldn’t be duplicating websites, even with a plugin like this.
I’ll use plugin again in future and will consider Pro version to show some support in the future.
Thanks folks for saving me a bunch of time this morning.
