hahahaha I am not a Gay so I cannot help LOL

Well I'm actually 100% heterosexual (and I can provide plenty of references in that regard), but maybe I can help you anyway!

:rolleyes:

To do it manually here is what you do.

(A) Make a copy:

1 - Copy all of the files using your FTP or SFTP client. Another quick way of doing this is to use your File Manager (if you have a CPanel or similar control panel) and compress the whole HTML root directory into a Zip or TAR file, then download it.

2 - Make a backup of the MySQL database associated with the site, download it as a .sql file

Now to make a "clone" site:

1 - Restore the copied files to the HTML root of the new site. Again either use FTP/SFTP or use the File Manager and extract the archive file you made in the first step.

2- Create a new MySQL database and database user, give the user sufficient permission on the database. Make note of the database name, user name and password.

3 - Make a copy of the .sql file you made earlier. Now open this copy in a good text editor like PS Pad, BlueFish or Notepad++.

4 - Do a "search and replace", replacing all instances of "olddomain.com" with "newdomain.com" - in other words change all your domain name references. Save the file.

5 - Import the file you just saved into your new MySQL database.

6 - On the new site edit the wp-config.php file to adjust the database name, username and password to match the new one.


And you should be good to go!

Good luck, and perhaps next time open your question up to everyone, regardless of sexual orientation! You'll find you get many more answers.

If you wanna spend some cash, you can try backupBuddy Plugin for wordpress. Or other cheap alternative would be to do it manually.

If you have original theme then you can change the content and some layout of the themes according to the requirements of each site. However if you ask me to design the site with 4 clones, i can do that at very affordable rate
