Directories are the same – Cannot clone file.

    I have been encountering a problem, when I try to clone one of our multisites as I have done before.

    I get this error:

    “Source and target uploads directories are the same. Cannot clone files.”

    Like I said, I have used this plugin before – a few times actually – but it just stopped working, and I have no idea why.

    Hope someone can point me in the right direction?

    Hi @baxie

    In a WordPress multisite installation the wp-uploads folder contains sub folders for each single website. Files which have been uploaded to the websites are stored in the corresponding folder – with the same structure you have in the wp-uploads folder of the standard installation.

    If you aren’t aware of any web hosting customizations you or your web host made that would change this default behavior then I would confirm with your host that they are storing uploads the default way as per the above. As long as they are and your .htaccess is setup properly, Cloner will work as expected ??
