Duplicate Post – duplicate pages, copy content, clone posts

Description

Duplicate Post RB is a powerful yet lightweight plugin that allows you to duplicate posts, duplicate pages, and clone custom post types in WordPress.
Whether you want to copy posts, clone pages, or generate multiple content variations, this plugin provides flexible and professional tools for content duplication.

Unlike basic duplicate post tools, Duplicate Post RB gives you full control over what exactly gets copied, including content, title, slug, featured image, taxonomies, templates, metadata, and more. This makes it ideal for websites with structured content, landing pages, learning systems, and large editorial workflows.

The new version introduces advanced duplication logic with configuration profiles and WP-CLI support – making Duplicate Post RB suitable for editors, agencies, and developers who need full control over how content is copied.

Duplicate Post RB now offers both profile-based duplication logic and global plugin settings, making it suitable for editors, administrators, agencies, and developers working with complex WordPress setups.

⭐ What’s New?

• New global option: All Post Meta
  You can now copy all post meta fields at once using a single global switch. This significantly simplifies duplication when working with complex posts, custom fields, and third-party plugins.

• Fixed and improved Custom Taxonomies support
  Custom taxonomies are now copied more reliably and consistently across different post types and duplication scenarios.

• Stability fixes for duplication options
  Improved handling of Featured Image, Attachments, Categories, Taxonomies, and related options to ensure predictable results when duplicating posts and pages.

• New Copy button in the Gutenberg editor
  Duplicate posts directly from the block editor with a dedicated Copy button, no need to leave the editor or switch views.

• New duplication history widget in editors
  A new History widget is now available inside both the Gutenberg editor and the Classic Editor, showing:

  • source post/page
  • duplication date and time
  • used duplication profile

These improvements make post duplication faster, clearer, and more transparent, especially when working with advanced setups and multiple profiles.

🚀 Optimized for Performance

Duplicate Post RB is built with performance and reliability in mind. The plugin works smoothly on large websites, supports Gutenberg and Classic Editor, and remains lightweight even under heavy use.

Whether you’re running a blog, a landing-page builder, an online store, a multisite network, or a content-heavy website Duplicate Post RB helps you duplicate posts and pages faster, easier, and with full control over the result.

⚙️ Global Settings

The new Global Settings section allows you to control how duplication features behave across your WordPress installation. From a single settings screen, you can define which user roles are allowed to duplicate content, including Super Admins, Administrators, Editors, Authors, and Contributors. This makes it easy to align duplication permissions with your team structure and editorial responsibilities.

In addition, you can choose where the Copy / Duplicate actions are displayed within the WordPress admin interface. The plugin allows you to enable duplication buttons on posts and pages lists, individual edit screens, the admin bar, inside the Gutenberg editor, and within the bulk actions menu. These options give you full flexibility to integrate duplication tools exactly where your workflow requires them.

Overall, the Global Settings section helps tailor Duplicate Post RB to different editorial processes, team sizes, and usage scenarios without adding unnecessary complexity.

Duplicate Post RB now includes an option to move the plugin menu to the Tools section.

This is useful if you want to: keep the WordPress admin menu cleaner, reduce visual clutter, or hide the plugin from the primary navigation while keeping it accessible.
