How do I clone a hosting package?

With your 20i Reseller Hosting Account, you can easily clone an entire package's contents from one domain over to another with no manual moving of files or the database.

• Head to Add a Hosting Package and select Clone from an Existing Package.

Note:  There's a 2 GB disk space limit on the packages that can be used to clone-from. The purpose of the tool is to allow the cloning of template packages to quicken the development process for new sites.

• Choose which package you'd like to clone and the name of the destination package.

• Choose the Platform and assign any StackCP Users if required.
• Then select Create Hosting Package.

Cloning a package can take up to 30 minutes.

If you access the package via Manage Hosting > Options > Manage, you'll see 'This package is being cloned, please wait...' if it's not yet complete. The time it takes to complete a clone will depend on the size of the site being cloned, the larger the site and its associated files and databases the longer the clone will take.

Note:  The tool will try to detect database config files such as wp-config.php and update those details, however, the tool is intended to clone template sites to live domains, so it may not always be able to detect those files.
