Lost Control

    This was really awesome until I lost control over my staging sites. I was trying to make a clone of a staging site from the staging site’s dashboard and it broke the chain.

    Originally, here’s the setup:

    • website.com

      • (parent)

    • website.com/preview1

      • (clone 1)

    • website.com/staging

      • (clone 2)

    Then, I was trying to achieve:

    • website.com

      • (parent)

    • website.com/preview1

      • (clone 1)

    • website.com/staging

      • (clone 2 – parent)

    • website.com/preview2

      • (clone of clone 2)

    But I when I accidentally cloned staging from within the staging I got:

    • website.com

      • (parent)

    • website.com/preview1

      • (clone 1 // broken)

    • website.com/staging

      • (clone 2 – parent)

    • website.com/staging/preview2

      • (child of clone 2)

    Now any new clones of website.com won’t clone as promised. By “broken” I mean the url shows the WordPress Installation Wizard. I checked the MySQL database and indeed, all tables for preview1_wp_ have been wiped clean. This is completed unexpected.

    Is this a bug?

    Usually cloning a clone worked without any issues during my last tests-
    I will check this after return of my holiday in a week. Maybe you found a bug.

    Anyway, i recommend to start over:

    – Try to delete the clones (If this does not work, delete the clone db tables with phpmyadmin)
    – Uninstall the plugin completely and check the selection box “delete all data during uninstall”

    Than try again.

    Best regards
