Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Post Duplicator

No! Post Duplicator works immediately with sensible defaults. Duplicated posts are created as drafts with the current user as the author. You can start duplicating posts right away.
* Default post status (draft, published, pending, or same as original) * Default post type (same or convert to another type) * Default author (current user or original author) * Default date (current time or duplicate timestamp) * Title and slug suffixes * Date offset options
The duplicate option appears in four places: Posts List (Single): Hover over any post in the All Posts (or any post type list) screen and click "Duplicate [Post Type]" in the row actions Posts List (Bulk): Select multiple posts using checkboxes, then choose "Duplicate" from the Bulk Actions dropdown Gutenberg Editor: Click the "Duplicate Post" button in the top toolbar when editing a post Classic Editor: Find the "Duplicate [Post Type]" button in the Publish meta box The duplicate option works for all post statuses (published, draft, pending, etc.).
Post Duplicator creates a complete copy including: * All post content and formatting (including Gutenberg blocks) * Title and slug (with customizable suffixes or full editing) * All custom fields and metadata (ACF, meta boxes, etc.) * Categories, tags, and all custom taxonomies * Featured images (with ability to change before duplication) * Post format and excerpt * Comment and ping status settings * Menu order * Post parent (for hierarchical post types) * Post password (if applicable) Comments are NOT duplicated (by design), and new unique IDs and GUIDs are assigned to each duplicate.
Yes! When the duplication modal opens, you can customize: * Full title and slug - Edit the complete title and slug, not just suffixes * Post status - Draft, published, pending, or same as original * Post type - Convert to a different post type during duplication * Post author - Assign to any user or leave without author * Post date - Use current time, original date, or pick a custom date with the calendar picker * Post parent - Set parent for hierarchical post types (pages, etc.) * Featured image - Change, replace, or remove the featured image * Taxonomies - Select which categories, tags, and custom taxonomies to include * Custom meta - Choose which custom fields to duplicate For bulk duplications or multiple clones, expand each post item to customize it individually. These customizations only apply to that specific duplication and don't change your default settings.
Yes! You can convert posts to different post types during duplication: Open the duplication modal Click "Customize Settings" Select a different post type from the "Post Type" dropdown The duplicate will be created as the selected type You can also set a default post type conversion in Settings > Post Duplicator.
Go to Settings > Post Duplicator > Permissions to configure role-based permissions: Duplicate Posts: Allows users to duplicate their own posts Duplicate Others' Posts: Allows users to duplicate posts created by other users You can enable or disable these capabilities for each user role (Administrator, Editor, Author, etc.).
Yes! Post Duplicator works with all post types, including: * Standard posts and pages * Custom post types from themes * Custom post types from plugins (WooCommerce products, etc.) * Any registered post type in WordPress
Yes! All custom fields and metadata are automatically copied to the duplicate. This includes: * ACF (Advanced Custom Fields) data * Custom meta boxes * Any post meta stored in the database
Yes! Post Duplicator integrates seamlessly with: * WPML: Automatically handles multilingual content correctly * Polylang: Excludes translation taxonomies from duplication
