    Hi!

    We built a beautiful site with X theme and would like to duplicate it exactly for our client’s second location. What is the best way to clone this new site into a new WordPress development site so that all customizations remain?

    Thank you!

    Hey There,

    Thanks for writing in!

    You can follow these steps :

    1. Create a test site, either on your local host or on a “hidden” directory on your server
    2. Copy all your content over to the site and basically make it look identical to your current one
    3. Enable the X theme
    4. Go through your site and change the settings you need to so that it looks the way you want. You may need to rewrite some pages or copy content into the visual composer so that you can take advantage of their layout features
    5. Once you’re done, export your test site, backup your live site and then replace the content on the live site with your test site’s export.

    Hope this helps!
