Step 2 is overwrite wp-content?

I searched the forums but did not find this question asked or answered.

xcloner documentation says "Unzip the XCloner-Wordpress2.1.zip file. The package consists of two folders: wp-content and
administrator. Upload these two folders to your Wordpress root".

Am I to overwrite that wp-content folder in order to install xcloner, or should the old wp-content and new folder of the same name be merged?

Starting with version 3.0, XCloner for Wordpress installs as a normal wordpress plugin, so upload it directly to the wp-content/plugins directory.

 

If you still want to use the 2.1 version, you install that, yes, you need to upload the files inside the worpdress root directory, however the wp-content will not be overwritten, the correct term is merged, so the actual won't be lost in this process.

 

Hope it helps! Ovidiu
