Site Cloning
Clone any local site to create an exact copy with its own domain and database. Useful for testing changes without affecting your main project.
How to Clone
Section titled “How to Clone”- Right-click a site in the sidebar, or open the site detail menu
- Click “Clone Site”
- Enter a name for the cloned site
- Click “Clone”
Blaze will:
- Copy all site files to a new directory
- Export and import the database to a new database
- Update
wp-config.phpwith the new database credentials - Configure a new
.localdomain and SSL certificate - Update WordPress URLs (site URL and home URL) to match the new domain
What Gets Cloned
Section titled “What Gets Cloned”| Component | Cloned |
|---|---|
| All site files | Yes |
| Database (full copy) | Yes |
| Plugins and themes | Yes |
| Uploads and media | Yes |
| PHP version setting | Yes |
| Custom PHP configuration | Yes |
The cloned site is completely independent — changes to either site won’t affect the other.
