You can also use it to move your site to/from local server hosting, to create copies of your site for development or testing purposes, to backup your site, and to install pre-configured versions of WordPress. WP Clone is a superior solution to even commercial WordPress cloning plugins for the following reasons: * Does not require FTP access to either the source or destination site – just install a new WordPress on the destination site, upload and activate WP Clone plugin, and follow the prompts * It does not backup or restore the WordPress system files (just the user content and database) – reducing upload time and improving security of your site * It fetches the site backup via your host's direct http connection, which saves you from needing to upload large files through your internet connection * It uses the WordPress internal zip archive function, which makes it compatible with virtually 100% of hosts that support WordPress (no special PHP libraries are required) = Help Video = [youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=dqpv2VjLCSY] = Please donate to support plugin development & ongoing support = WP Clone is provided free of charge to the community and supported through the plugin forums on WordPress.org.
