Last updated on September 30, 2022 @ 11:39 pm

The short answer is yes, you can duplicate a Wix site. The longer answer is that it depends on how much effort you want to put into it and how comfortable you are with working with HTML and CSS. If you’re willing to put in the work, you can create an exact copy of a Wix site. Keep in mind, however, that Wix sites are not built on a solid foundation like WordPress sites are. This means that there are some limitations to what you can do with a Wix site.

That being said, if you’re comfortable working with HTML and CSS, duplicating a Wix site is not too difficult. The first step is to find a Wix template that you like. Once you’ve found a template, you can use the Wix Editor to customize it to your liking.

To do this, simply click on the element you want to edit and then make your changes in the editor.

PRO TIP: If you are considering duplicating a Wix site, be aware that this is not possible. Wix sites are unique and cannot be duplicated. If you attempt to duplicate a Wix site, you will end up with an entirely new site that is not connected to the original in any way.

Once you’re satisfied with your changes, you can then export your site’s HTML and CSS code. To do this, simply go to the settings menu and click on the “Export” option. From there, you’ll be able to download your site’s code as a ZIP file.

Now that you have your site’s code, you can upload it to a server and host your own copy of your Wix site. Of course, there are some limitations to this approach. For one, you won’t be able to use any of Wix’s features or plugins. Additionally, your site won’t be automatically updated when new versions of Wix are released. Nevertheless, if you’re comfortable working with code and don’t mind putting in a bit of extra work, duplicating a Wix site is certainly possible.

In conclusion, yes – you can duplicate a Wix site using HTML and CSS code however there are some limitations to consider before doing so.
