Cloning to new directory on same server

Hi there,

I have my dev site at public_html/dev and want to clone this site up to public_html.

1. Are there any issues I should worry about in terms of dev directory sitting below public_html? Will the clone leave the dev directory untouched?

2. I assume I need to remove all of joomla currently installed in public_html?

I would appreciate any advice before i start this.

Hi there!

1. There shouldn't be any issues as long as you use a different database on restore compared to the original one
2. You don't need to remove any Joomla files from your root directory

Let me know if you have further questions! Ovidiu
