"Clone name must not be longer than 16 characters".

    Hello,

    I am using the plugin to create a website with several folders (abc.com, abc.com/folder1, abc.com/folder2, abc.com/folder3, etc.).

    Each abc.com/folderx is not staging site, but a “real” site.

    That’s why I need that my folders could be well indexed by Google.

    But the plugin limits the number of characters in folders “Clone name must not be longer than 16 characters”. It’s difficult for me to create folder’s name as I want.

    Could the plugin’s author increase this limit, please?

    Thank you and Regards.

    Hi Att,

    the problem is that the name of the staging site is also the name of the prefix in your database. database tables have a total naming limitation of 64 characters. I have to rewrite this completely from scratch and its not an easy task because it must be backward compatible to the current naming convention.

    I am not sure if i am able to do this within a short time but i put it on the to do list.

    Hello René,

    – Thank you for taking account in that.

    – An advice, please: As I explained above, “I am using the plugin to create a website with several folders (abc.com, abc.com/folder1, abc.com/folder2, abc.com/folder3, etc.). Each abc.com/folderx is not staging site, but a “real” site.”.

    Is it a good idea? Folders websites created in that manner will be stable (Like an independent folder website (with a separate database))?

    Thanks a lot for your advice.
