Plugin Description
A simple and effective approach to copying blogs within a multisite network.
- Copy a blog including all its widgets, template settings and more.
- Option to copy or not copy files.
- GUIDs and urls in post contents are migrated automatically.
This plugin was derived from Ron Renneck’s awesome WP Replicator (http://wpebooks.com/replicator/) plugin, although it’s been 90% rewritten. Changes from the original include the following:
- Improved performance on large scale blogs.
- Improved file copy performance and an option in the admin to bypass copying altogether.
- Removed limit of number of blogs that can be used as a copy source.
- Encapsulated the code in a Class and renamed variables to be more readable.
- Revised UI to keep it simple and easy to use.
Sadly the WordPress file management code is not idea for handling the copying of a large folder with subdirectories so we opted to stick with exec(‘cp’). On the flip side, we set up a filter (copy_blog_files_command) so that you can override it with your own custom copy code.

Documentation
It’s pretty straight forward. Select the blog you want to copy. Set a new domain or subdomain and a title. Decide if you want to copy the files or just the data. Click “Copy Now”. Done.
This DOES NOT copy blogs across networks, back up blogs off the network, or copy the master blog. This also does NOT copy users from one blog to another.
