How do I clone a hosting package?
With your 20i Reseller 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 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.
- Once selected, create your hosting package as you normally would. Select or type the domain name, choose the Platform Type 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.
