    Why it\u2019s important to duplicate a WordPress page or post<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Efficiency. It’s all about efficiency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    When you’ve established a post styling standard, or landing page design – recreating that from scratch each time is a WASTE of your time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    How to duplicate pages or posts in WordPress & WooCommerce<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Plugins are the bread and butter of this process as you cannot just simply copy and paste content as important images, SEO, posts and other variants won\u2019t pull through or can be negatively affected. Please see below the steps involved to duplicate a typical WordPress page, post or WooCommerce product using plugins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Just want to duplicate the content of the page? Maybe you just need to copy the content – not duplicate the post or page as below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    <\/div>\n\n\n\n

    Duplicating WordPress page or post content without a plugin<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    When on Gutenberg editor, you proceed to \u201cMore tools and options\u201d settings and click \u201cCopy all content\u201d button as you can on the below screenshot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

    After clicking “Copy all content” and then you click paste on the new page you want the original information on, you have the following on the below screenshot:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

    It should be noted that you can copy as much written content as you want, but it won’t copy photos or videos as you have to upload them manually to your duplicate written content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    In addition, as mentioned above this was used on Gutenberg editor, however, my fellow readers should know that this is not just limited to that specific editor as you can use the classic editor as an example by copying the entire HTML code from the page, which would result in you to paste it onto the new pages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    <\/div>\n\n\n\n

    Duplicating a page or post using a WordPress Plugin<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    As I mentioned before, Duplicate Page is one of, if not the most popular plugin used amongst WordPress users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    As you can see from the screenshot below you can install and activate Duplicate Page like any other typical WordPress plugin. You go to Plugin on the left-hand side option bar, click Add New located underneath it, and then you type in Duplicate Page on the search bar that says \u201cSearch plugins in it\u201d which is located on the top right-hand side of the page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

    It says “Deactivate” below because I’ve already activated it. But if it hasn’t already been done, it will say “activate” or “reactivate”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

    After following that process, you may go to settings on the left-hand side toolbar, and then click “Duplicate Page”:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n
    \"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

    Choose Editor<\/strong> \u2013 Allows you to pick your preferred option which can be Gutenburg or Classic Editor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Duplicate Post Status<\/strong> \u2013 Allows you to choose Draft, Publish, Private or Pending when it comes to your duplicate post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Redirect to after click on \u201cDuplicate This\u201d link<\/strong> \u2013 Once Duplicate Post is activated your posts will have a link called \u201cDuplicate this\u201d. The option chosen will determine your redirection path once the link has been clicked. The options are All Pages list or edit page of the duplicated page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Duplicate post suffix<\/strong> – Lets you exercise the option of adding a suffix (original \u2013 copy). Or in other words it helps differentiate between the original version and copy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    REMINDER:<\/strong> This entire process can work with other plugins as the principle is the same and is not specifically limited to Duplicate Post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    <\/div>\n\n\n\n

    Process for Duplicating a page with a plugin<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Once the above has been complete you can now start duplicating the page. Below I have chosen to duplicate the “About” page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

    After hovering over the page title, there will be a “Duplicate This” option that appears. Click this to create a duplicate page as a draft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

    If you struggle to differentiate between the duplicate and original, you can add a suffix to it to make it easier to identify with in the plugin settings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    <\/div>\n\n\n\n

    How to duplicate a WordPress Post using a plugin<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Duplicating a post in WordPress is ultimately the same process as duplicating a page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

    The only difference is, as you can see from the above screenshot, you go onto Posts instead of Pages this time. I have decided to duplicate my article of choice which is \u201cMethods to change the Number of WooCommerce Products Displayed Per Page\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n
