WordPress bundle Duplicate Page and Post

hello and welcome to Novato Tut’s plus quick tip I might have pulled it up and in today’s video you’ll learn how to duplicate a page in WordPress and this can be helpful for a number of reasons for example cloning or duplicating allows you to use a certain page as a template so you can create similar content over and over again starting from the same page another use case could be on their website redesign where you want to duplicate a page but you also want to keep the original so if you just need to make tiny tiny changes that’s a great way to use of this functionality now I doing this in a WordPress is simple but it’s not very obvious because we’re Prince doesn’t have a native cloning or duplicating functionality so let’s see how we can fix this right here in WordPress

let’s go to pages I have a sample page that I’m going to use to demonstrate here today

and the traditional method

right of a duplicating this page would be to open it up you would then copy like the entire content

and then you would go in here create a new page give it a title and then paste in all of that content and you know this works at some level but

it’s not the best way because this is not the duplication

of that page it’s basically copying the content over a page in WordPress is much more than just as content right I can set things like permalinks featured images discussion attribute page attributes not to mention page templates right so when you’re just copying this content using copy and paste all of these attributes are not copied with it so you would have to redo them all over again well to add this functionality to autor press we can use a plug-in right plugins to the rescue so go to plugins add new and organist search here for plugging cold duplicate post if this one right here let’s go ahead and install it activated so now if you go to Paige’s you’ll see that we have two extra options when we hover

on on a page on this list here we have clone and we have new draft if we do clone it’s going to Crete

a copy of that page

and put it in draft mode if we say new draft is going to do the same thing but it’s going to automatically open the the editor for us and right here if we had any secret images or different templates

these will get copied with it so not just the content with also these attributes right here and of course this plug-in also works with posts not just pages and that’s it’s a very simple procedure using this stuff free duplicate post plug in thanks for watching this quick tip I’m on the and until next time take care
