    Copying zencart

    Greetings! I'm a newbie in Zencart and dunno much PHP, anyways I need to copy a whole site with zencart on another domain name (active site), the owner wants the same features of his other site (same products and all, just different domain)so I will just change the layout of the new site from the other one. Can I just copy the site thru FTP? what wil I configure? database? etc... please advise. Thanks :)

    Yea you need the database for starters and will need to change the configure files (with the new domain names etc) but what id do is ask your host to do it for you (the copying over bit), any decent host would gladly do this.
