 * Hello,
 * I’m trying to move a site from server 1 where it was developed to server 2 where
   it will be run from. However I have a number of other wordpress websits hosted
   on server 2.
 * Before importing I noticed the line ‘Your WordPress database [xxx] will be overwritten
   from the database in the backup file’ which has me fairly concerned. Does this
   mean that the whole SQL database on server 2 will be deleted and cloned from 
   server 1 meaning that the other websites on server 2 are unusable?
 * If this is the case how can I use WP Clone to only move one website to server
   2 and maintain functionality of all other websites on the server? All server 
   moving guides seem to assume you only host one site on one server.
 * Thanks
