Best Duplicate Posts/Post Cloner Plugin
by Gabor Lippert·3 years ago
I just really doN’t understand the low download number – I’ve been using this plugin for about 5-6 years (if not more), never had any issues with it, it does its job perfectly and wonderfully, no ads in the admin, no freemium model, no tons of unnecessary options, a simple, logically structured, clean UI, and I’m 100% sure I could add a few other items to the “Why am I using this specific plugin” list.
Post cloner is a perfect product, and a perfect example of how plugin development for an open-source, free software should work in a better world.
Oh, not to mention, it has one of the loveliest plugin profle picture in the whole repo!! 🐑✨❤️
Thank you so much!

Massive time saver! I use this with EDD they offer a payed for version of duplicate… Kind of feel ripped off knowing that this should be a built in function.
I can not thank you enough 🙂
Clones everything.

Really nice plugin It also works on custom post types.
Does 99.9 % of the job

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.
