# Duplicated WordPresspage using wrong folder structure

 * Hey,
 * I need to update a 6 years old wordpressite which runs on WordPress 5.1.9 and
   on PHP 5.5.
 * I duplicated the page on the same Server into a “Neu” folder and connected it
   with another domain which I put on PHP 7.4. Of course it caused many many errors
   and issues so I turned all Plugins of via FTP but the errors still stay as the
   page uses the “old” plugin from the running page.
 * The path of the used plugins written on the page is “htdocs/wp-content/plugins/
   woocommerce” and not “Neu/htdocs/wp-content/plugins/woocommerce” as wanted. How
   can I change that the duplicated plugins are used? The Domain is totally right
   connected to the “Neu” folder.
 * Also is there any way to fix those problems easy? My plan was to turn off plugins
   and theme until I am able to log into the backend, then update WordPress, Plugins
   and Theme and hope it will run again? I haven’t done something like this before
   so I am very thankful for every help!
 * Thanks!

 * You need to do more than just copy the files and database.
    This is an article

 * There is a plugin called DUPLICATOR that helps with this.
 * Once you have the site moved, suggest that you load the PHP compatability checker
   plugin:

 * Hey Thank you for your response! I tried the DUPLICATOR Plugin as well as the
   PHP compatability checker plugin but unfortunately both of them show multiple
   errors and problems… But I don’t know how to fix those problems…
 * I also did everything like explained int the link you provided. I already transfered
   many wordpress pages to other severs and it worked all well until this time where
   I just duplicated the page but on the same server…
