    I need to duplicate a website and looking for a WordPress plugin that can do a full website back up and allow for you to restore that backup in a different WordPress website.

    I want to be able to do this with in the WordPress admin area as I don't have access to the databases or ftp information. All I have is the WordPress username and password.

    Looking for suggestions.

    Thanks!

    Just export the posts, run a search and replace on the domain name to change it to the new one and import into the new site. Put up a new theme if you can't get a copy of the old one. Dead simple.

    WP clone by WP academy is preferably coolest plugin to use. It is easy to Copy, Move and duplicate your website. Whether move a website to different server or using it for testing purpose.

    Have been using Duplicator which does the job perfectly. Easy, simple and hassle free.
