+== Cloning-Specific Node Configuration ===

+Depending on your exact site configuration, you may need to execute some configuration actions only in the context of profile cloning. This section defines the different options available.

 It is harmless to define this variable on a node which is not cloned.
 
+=== Conditional Configuration ==
+
+If a site-specific template is executed in the context of profile cloning (as part of the configuration replayed on every node), it may test the variable `PROFILE_CLONING_CLONED_NODE` to do (or ignore) some actions in the context of profile cloning. This variable has the value `true` when the profile is cloned rather than rebuilt.
+
+''Note: in an early version of profile cloning, this variable was called DUMMY_NODE. If you used this variable, you need to update it to the new one. There is no backward compatibility.''
+
+For example to conditionally exclude some template when the profile is cloned, you may use:
+{{{
+include { if ( PROFILE_CLONING_CLONED_NODE ) 'site/nocloning-config' };
+}}}
