      Well yes but I am not sure of the best way to do this, the last time I tried there was an issue with the database. I’ve copied modx 9.063 to different servers etc loads of times but when I tried to go from this one to the newer version there was issues!
      • Ah. I once had a site with the database set to the European old standard of DEC-8. Caused no end of trouble since they are in four languages! Finally got everything switched over to a proper utf8 database.

          It caused issues with the way the cms loaded up. When I do a clone of modx 9 to another server everything is fine, just need to ensure the config file is changed to point at the new database (exact clone of old one) then site is fine, for some reason I tried this with the new modx and something wouldn’t work! I can’t get this plugin to work either so maybe it’s not compatible with 9.063..:(
