I am making some updates to a new client’s website and since they already have a consistent flow of revenue and a lot of customers with paid subscriptions, I had a few questions to make sure I’m not messing anything up.
1. Are current WooCommerce subscriptions changed automatically when a subscription is updated in general?
**Example**: If the minimum order to get free shipping is increased, will this impact customers who already receive free shipping but don’t hit the new minimum order? or do the subscriptions need to be updated manually?
2. By cloning a WordPress site, that has **authorize.net** as the payment gateway, are these payments also cloned?
**Example**: Bob has a sub of $30/month, will he be charged $60 when it’s renewed because there is the main site, and the clone? Or will he only be billed 1x?
Current hosting: SiteGround
Current DNS: Cloudflare
Hosting where I will set up the clone: NameHero

Yeah probably. That is why payment gateways come with test modes.
Woocommerce Subscriptions plugin will generally automatically disable subscriptions on a staging site.
Depends on how you’re duplicating. Some cloning plugins allows you pick what tables to include/exclude.
Some plugins you can install for extra assurance include [Safety Net](https://github.com/a8cteam51/safety-net) and [Action Scheduler – Disable Default Queue Runner](https://github.com/woocommerce/action-scheduler-disable-default-runner).
