Clone application settings
When you clone an application, you should have an option to clone also:
- Application credentials
- Domains
- Cron Jobs
- SSL Certificates
- Application settings
- CDN settings
At the moment, the Application Cloning process only clones the files+database, with the result that the app is working but then you have to duplicate all those settings manually in the Platform.

Yes, please!!! When performing site care on 100+ sites and creating a staging site each time, the repetitive adjusting of settings and SSL is very time consuming.

a MUST... I don't even know why this has not been implemented since the start! A clone is a clone... not a clone of files/db with default settings!!

How it should look like is, before hitting the final "clone" button, you could just add a checkbox that say something like
"I want all my app settings to be cloned along".
That's it... as it's very annoying to manually input all settings, SSL, cron job, etc and it's not efficient in 2020... its' a machine world, let's put machines and script to do the job for us!! -

Yeah it also needs to have an option to choose if you want to use the same folder/db name or have cloudways generate a new one. Because currently it doesn't allow you to cloning one site multiple times to another server. It just says the application already exists.

Yes, I agree, the cloning process should have more options that allow application database name, crudentials, ect.
This is really needed.

Oh yes, I am refraining from cloning anything right now (specifically server clone) due to Domains and SSL not being cloned over as well, this is a HUGE issue for me and very time consuming to re-setup everything again...
