Hey there.
I currently have a Moodlecloud server, and I would like to have a perfectly identical copy on my home server for things like experimentation without messing up the important one, having an alternative location, etc.
How do I accomplish this?
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
First a few things you should know - MoodleCloud extends core Moodle to provide things like BigBlueButton, a new theme and some other optimisations (caching etc) so you wont have a 100% exact mirror but it will be close enough.
You can download Moodle from https://download.moodle.org/
You can perform a Site Export of your MoodleCloud site from the Portal by visiting https://moodlecloud.com and logging in using your site name and admin password, then going to Tools -> Export my site.
You can restore your site export to the database on your home server and with a few minor tweaks of the provided config.php you will be up and running in no time.
If you need help along the way be sure to check https://docs.moodle.org as we cannot provide support for sites hosted off the MoodleCloud platform.
Great, I expected as much.
Although I'm curious what you mean by 'a few minor tweaks of the provided config.php'. Is it only updating the url of the new server, or something more involved?
