Access Duplicator Pro Main Menu

Duplicator Pro is only available from the main administrator dashboard and cannot be accessed from a subsite menu.

To access the plugin options, navigate to WordPress Admin » My Sites (top left) » Network Admin » Dashboard » Duplicator Pro (main menu).

Certainly, Duplicator Pro operates at the top network level in a WordPress multisite setup. This means that backups and restores can only be managed from the network level, not directly from the subsites.

Redirect Loop Problem

To fix redirection loops that may occur when migrating a Multisite website, check the variable below and ensure it matches your database entry:

define( ‘DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE’, ‘www.example.com’ );
