In reply to: [Migrate Guru – Site Migration & Cloning] Overwrite existing destination siteI am not an expert and my advice is only based on my own experience. I’ve moved twice and always used a fresh WordPress installation. It definitely works. I cannot say whether there will be conflicts if the target is hosting an old installation. To be on the safe side, I would prefer a new installation. It should be worth the effort. It should be a cleaner solution because it avoids unnecessary junk and data garbage.

In reply to: Can’t duplicate WP installationThose 12 GB are mainly website data. I’m photographer and it’s a website about South German Shrovetide with a huge amount of images. 😉
I finally found out that the problem was my fault. The ftp directory path was shorter than I thought. It was just “/” 🙂

In reply to: Can’t duplicate WP installationI finally succeeded! I couldn’t do it with All-in-One WP Migration, Duplicator or Updraft Plus because the “Free Version” of these plugins can only deal with small websites. Mine has currently 12,3 GB. So I gave Migration Guru a try and it worked brilliantly! I’m happy with this plugin!!

In reply to: [Migrate Guru – Site Migration & Cloning] Really? Can it be this easy?All-in-one WP migration costs money as soon as the site exceeds a certain size. Duplicator and Updraft Plus as well. But when I tried Migrate Guru last year, it helped me without any hassles!
