I have got a WordPress website and I would like to create a new one with exactly the same functions, themes/templates (apart from the color), plugins, etc. An exact clone of the current one, but with different content and name of sections.
Is there any plugin I can use or should I just copy the website, delete contents and change the name of the sections? Is there any tutorial? I can I reset all the id and the stats of the previous website?
Thanks in advance
WordPress comes with feature for this: »MU« or Multisite or Network.
You can read more about it in Codex.
The most important part is a single line in your wp-config.php file:
define( 'WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE', true );
Then you have to decide whether you want to use sub domains or sub directories.
One thing you’ve to be aware off: Not all plugins can be used in MU installations. Some have functionality, that depends on stuff like the $blog_id, which is a separate ID for every sub installation/clone/site you run. Always check this one first (Hint: Make one subsite that you use for testing).
