    Hello guys,

    From what I realize, your plugin does the full copy of one site, and is it for when I need to move the whole site to another site? That is, if I want to only pass the posts of a category, I can not?

    I need the following … I have a site where you talk about various subjects separated by Categories. I recently activated the Multisites Network for creating subdomains. Each category would become a subdomain, for example:

    All posts from category mysite.com/category1 would be migrated to sub1.mysite.com
    All posts from category mysite.com/category2 would be migrated to sub2.mysite.com
    All posts from category mysite.com/category3 would be migrated to sub3.mysite.com

    This process, the plugin yours do not?

    I thank you,
    Rodrigo

  • Hey Rodrigo,

    Duplicator Lite doesn’t officially support MultiSite (MU). We have improved support for MU in the Pro version with additional features on the way in the up coming years.

    Hope that helps~

    Hello Cory,

    Does not the Pro version of the plugin do what I need?

    I thank you

    Hi Rodrigo,

    Unfortunately at this point in time that particular scenario it does not cover. You might reach out to the authors of this plugin to see if they have any ideas on how to cover that issue:

    Hello Cory,

    Thanks for the plugin indication. I installed it to check how it works, but it seems to me that its function is almost the same as Duplicator, ie it clones the whole site. The only difference is that Duplicator clones the entire site to be migrated to another server, since NS Cloner clones the entire site to be migrated to another site on the same Multisite Network.

    But what I need is not to clone the whole site at once. I need to clone each category of my site separately, since all posts in each category must be migrated to their respective subdomains.

    WP itself has this function in Export and Import. In the Export function I can choose to export only Posts, and then choose from which Category I want to export the posts. An xml file is generated where I import into the respective subdomain.

    The problem is that the xml file that this Export function is generating, there are no URLs of the featured images of the posts, so with this when importing the xml file, the posts are migrated correctly (content with links, images that the text has, Date of posting, number of views and ect), but it does NOT import the featured images (image that is at the top of the post).

    I do not know why WP is not doing the export of the images in the xml file, because in the Import function, there is an option to select if I want media to be imported.

    Anyway … that’s my problem. It seems that I can not find any plugin that clones all posts from only a single category.

    Thank you for your attention and if you have any solutions, I accept the help.

    Att,
    Rodrigo

    Hi Rodrigo,

    I’m not sure if there is a plugin that will go that granular. The best approach at this point would probably be with a custom SQL script. You might be able to get someone from upwork to probably get it done for a pretty good price…

    Cheers~
