With BackupBuddy, you can easily clone WordPress sites. The BackupBuddy plugin gives you a complete copy of your WordPress site in a downloadable zip file that you can use as a duplicate version of the site.
Clone WordPress with BackupBuddy
BackupBuddy makes a complete copy of your WordPress site including:
- the database
- themes
- plugins
- media library
- posts
- pages
- comments
- widgets
- menus
- … and everything else included in your WordPress installation.
Once you run a complete backup with BackupBuddy, you can download a zip file of your site that can be used as a cloned site.
WordPress Staging & Development Sites with BackupBuddy
One of the main reasons to clone your WordPress site is for testing and development (staging). With BackupBuddy, you can migrate your cloned WordPress site to a new host or domain or local testing environment for further development.
With BackupBuddy’s Deployment feature, you can push or pull changes from one WordPress site to another, making WordPress staging easy.
