Shop copy

[adb34]

I am looking at doing a full image backup of my site together with it's database so that I can setup another site that looks the same but selling completely different products.

What pages do I need to amend so that when I upload the database, with a different name etc, the site picks up the correct database?

Is there anything else I need to change/do?

I am trying to speed up the process of setting up another shop.

It can be as simple as changing the configure.php files to point at the correct location and database..

Assuming that as the site has been further modified that things like hard links have not been created to the current site, but instead relative/zen_href_link functionality used, or specific files loaded based on path information entered specifically on the page(s), but instead again ZC functions and code used to find the applicable file(s).

Right.. but my original answer was based on the things we KNOW about Zen Cart, not everything we don't know (hard coded links and any other "unusual" modification would be in that unknown area). We KNOW that all things being equal that a change to the configure.php files (store side and admin) to point to the new location and database would be all that's minimally needed.. (and BTW, there is an FAQ which covers moving one's Zen Cart site..)

I have copied the site that I want to use in to another domain. I have changed both of the config files to the new domain and database. When I access the new domain the home page is OK, but all other links go to the copied site.

You need to update your config file to point to the NEW FILE FOLDERS location too...

They are. Very thing in both of the config files are pointing to the correct site.

How bout posting the includes/configure.php and admin/includes/configure.php files (obscuring DB_PASSWORD and admin directory if specifically provided (which it shouldn't be in an updated site)).
