We have a WP website that was cloned by another developer on to a subdomain of the main.
A WordPress developer has now completed redesigning that cloned - new - website. Now we need that clone to replace the original. I can find no clear documentation on best way of
doing this?
the choice appears to be to clone the clone back on to the original , however this feels like there's lots of potential for issues (see WooCommerce note below). An alternative approach is to "Copy Data" but this also may be unwise.
What should be the best way of taking the "clone" site and replacing the "original" site with the clone data, whilst preserving elements that are aware one part is a clone and another is not.
NOTES:
- WooCommerce on the cloned copy is aware it is a copy and is in test mode.
- Documentation (via search engines) couldn't give me any useful guidance here.
