Wiping an old mutisite database

    “Connect and Remove All Data” will delete all tables to the database you connect to.

    I’m duplicating a single-site install connecting to an existing multi-site database. I actually want the existing/old database to be wiped. Is there any reason the free version of Duplicator wouldn’t work as expected when connecting to an existing multi-site DB?

    Thanks.

    Hey Josh,

    It might be because the DB user your using doesn’t permissions to remove tables is my only thought. The code for that data is pretty straightforward basically it calls this:

    "SHOW FULL TABLES WHERE Table_Type != 'VIEW'";

    Then it loops through the results and removes the tables returned by that query…
