When you create a site, you can base it on an existing site to save time on tasks such as web design and part configuration. This creates a site with existing layouts, templates, and settings that you can update as necessary, which is useful for recurring events and programs such as walk-a-thons or campaigns.
Note: You can copy any site in the database, including the default site and any parent or child site.
When you copy a site, you select one of four options to determine the content to copy. The program copies parts in one of three ways. Some parts are automatically shared between the original site and the new site, and select parts are shared when you use an option to share them from a template with other sites. Other parts are duplicated to create separate parts for the new site.
Tip: If you do not want to copy an entire site, you can move content, such as parts and layouts, from their current site to another site. For example, to move a Donation Form part, select another site in the Assign to site field on the Properties tab for the part.
