After 7 months of development, WP Dolly Pro, a WordPress copy/cloner plugin has been released.

After being really disappointed with the cloners on the market, I decided to create my own. But traveling that path looking for a cloner that was simple and easy to use, was not easy to find, I discovered that there are many so-called cloners available, but most were just difficult to use, especially when they claimed “one click” simplicity.

The popular cloners require too many steps to get the job done. They want you to…

• upload a settings PHP file to your server
• then call that file through your browser (ex: http://mysite.com/settingsfile.php)
• create the clone and download to your computer
• then upload that “clone” and another clone PHP file to the server where you want the clone
• and then call the file through your browser, just to complete the cloning process.

Plus, in most cases, you need a fresh install of WordPress on the target server, before you can even start cloning. When I saw this, I thought about how people new to the internet(newbies) would handle this. The answer is that they would have great difficulty in getting the job done.
