    Hi WP,

    I have a fairly complex site built in WordPress at mydomain.com/site and need to create another exact duplicate at anotherdomain.com

    I need the existing site intact so don’t want to change the URI’s as suggested in the article: http://codex.wordpress.org/Moving_WordPress

    What is the best way of doing this, creating a fresh install of WordPress at anotherdomain.com then copying over the plug ins and theme folders and finally doing and SQL dump and importing that? (I am happy running SQL queries to make sure the URLs are correct for the new domain)

    The original site cannot be affected whatsoever.

    Pls advise!
