Hello,
I have set up a test environment for my already running wordpress website with the Vantage theme. After I got everything running some of the widgets aren’t showing up properly formatted. I wonder if you could point me in the proper direction…
Thank you,
John
ps how do I find my premium order number?

Hi John
Would it be possible to get some more information please.
Which widgets are not formatting properly.
In what way are the widgets different in formatting from the original.
There are several ways formatting can be applied to the widgets. This information should help us to point you in the correct direction.
Thank you
Magus
Perhaps it would be best to see what I am talking about. The test environment is on a Ubuntu 12.04.2 Virtual server. I have MySQL and PHP5 running and working. As you can see the rest of the site/them is working. It’s a exact copy of what is on the web server. The widgets that are affected seem to affected are the Vantage Headline and circle headline. I seems that other widgets from Woocommerce are working but not the SiteOrigin ones.

Hi Serverjohn
Would you mind telling me what method you used to clone the existing installation.
Thanks

No I wouldn't mind. I made a tar zipped file from Linux commandline. Then transfer that via FTP to my test server. Then I unzipped and untared the file. I downloaded the database with PHP admin to SQL commands. I used Heidi SQL to run the SQL commands.
Hi John,
Would you mind trying again using this plugin

I have great success with transferring sites this way. If it still shows errors in the layout after this then it will be a hosting setting on the server, most likely one of the php settings. (are you using the same php config on your localhost as on your web host?).
Thanks
