 * Hi all,
 * I currently have my site backed up with wp-clone in a zip folder on my desktop.
   Can anybody let me know where I go from here please?
 * I think I need to upload it into my wp-clone folder on file manager, but where
   do I then get the url from?
 * Thanks in advance
    Jason

 * Go back to your site, make a new backup, then it will provide a URL, click to
   copy that to your clipboard, then go to your new site, that you don’t mind is
   completely overwritten (or corrupted if things go bad) and use the WP-clone plugin
   to import into your new site (paste the URL that you copied to the clipboard 
   earlier). You do not need the one that is on your desktop, although maybe there’s
   a way to import that – I don’t know. I am NO EXPERT just hitting the forums to
   learn.
