I have cloned 6 modules of Publisher on my website and all work perfectly. No the database is not cloned only the files and folders. All you need to do is go into phpmyadmin and export in cvs format the 5 tables of that working module and replace it with the cvs tables (overriding) of the cloned ones. Once in the admin panel you should see the new articles and categories. Check perms etc as usual.
Xoops needs Publisher as there are so much facilities especially in the blocks area, like Columns Block for example, and I hope Mowaffaq and Trabis and others will hopefully one day publish a full version if it.
