Post Cloner will create a quick to access action button on the post/page edit screen alongside ‘Edit’, ‘Quick Edit’, ‘Trash’ and ‘View’.
All cloned posts, pages and custom post types will have ‘- Clone’ appended to the end of their title. All cloned posts, pages and custom post types will also be set to draft so they don’t appear anywhere on your site until you decide to publish them.

Post Cloner

Too simple, Too good. Post and Pages ready in a few seconds.



Simple and Fast

The one issue I have found is that when creating custom post types with PODS, that when a custom field such as "Relationship [type: pick]" where the value is another post type, the selected values are not copied over.



Does 99.9 % of the job

Works perfectly!

Post cloner allows you to easily make complete duplicates of any post on your site. That includes posts, pages and custom post types.

Sometimes happiness is about small things. What about being able to prepare a new version of your content while its original is still online?
Anticipating and preparing the next version of an article which is already online can quickly become a tedious and risky task. Indeed, most publishers will create a brand new post, fill it in, publish it once it’s ready and finally disable the original article.
<h4>Basic features:</h4>
<ul>
<li>creation of a new version of an article in 1 click;</li>
<li>direct access to other pending versions of an article;</li>
<li>update of an article to its new version in 1 click.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Advanced features:</h4>
<ul>
<li>duplication of an article into a brand new independent copy;</li>
<li>hookable 😉 </li>
<li>works with any post types, custom or not</li>
<li>makes coffee (we’re still working on that)</li>
</ul>
<h3>About</h3>

pnv_{column_name}_column_value
