Replicating a page or post will save you lots of time. It allows you to design templates that can be reused, thereby saving many hours of having to duplicate the same layout repeatedly. It is also a great method to alter the content of a post or page without disrupting the live version until the changes are implemented. This article will take a look at ways to duplicate an existing WordPress page or post.
It is easy to open an existing post (or page or a different type of post), take the content, copy it, and then paste it into your new post. However, it copies only the content. You’ll still need to include tags, categories SEO, labels, and so on. It is also possible to alter the initial post.
Let’s first take a look at some methods that are manual for the WordPress editor and Divi. We’ll examine how the techniques are implemented and then discuss the advantages and disadvantages. We’ll then look at the easiest method of duplicating an existing WordPress page or post regardless of the editor it was designed using.
Duplicating a Page or Post Manually
Gutenberg includes a copy of the content feature that is built-in. In the case of using Classic Editor, you can highlight the content and copy it. In the case of Gutenberg, start the article you wish to duplicate and click from the tab Document. If you choose a particular block, only the selected specific block can be repeated. You can open the options and tools list by clicking on the three dots in the upper right corner.
The menu will appear. Select Copy All Content. The content is copied to the clipboard of your operating system.
There will be a message that reads Copied as well as a small pop-up that reads that all content has been copied.
Then, you can create the page or blog post and name it a name.
Then, place the cursor inside the first block beneath the title and copy the contents. This will only be the blocks that have body content as well as their settings. Document settings (categories tags, categories, etc.) are not included. Since it is only copying the content, you are able to utilize the content differently.
This is a straightforward method to copy the content. However, you must go to the page every time, and it will only copy the content. There are no other settings included.
Manually Clone a Divi Page
There’s also the option to duplicate an entire page or post created using Divi. Create a brand new page or post, and then use to use the Divi Builder. There is a choice to create a new layout from scratch, pick a pre-made design, or even clone pages that already exist. Select Clone Existing Page.
Select your page or post from the drop-down menu.
It also includes the content and title; however, it does not include setting the settings for pages. The content on posts and pages is interchangeable, which means you can copy one and use it as the other.
Duplicate the contents of a WordPress Page or Post with Layouts from WP.
If you’re looking to replicate a page or an article layout using one of the top builders, you can make use of an application called WP Layouts. Create pages and posts using Gutenberg, Divi, Beaver Builder, or Elementor and store them in the WP Layouts cloud for reuse using similar builders on any other website. You can also save code snippets. In the near future, the feature will allow you to store child themes. Professionally designed templates that you can incorporate into your designs are included.
They won’t keep the settings of a page or post, which means they don’t have featured images, meta and meta. This is why it’s ideal to utilize the layouts in every page or post that uses the builder you’re using. The designs will keep any images, codes, or styles you’ve applied to the modules of the invention.
Using WP Layouts in conjunction with Divi
This example illustrates an example of a Divi layout. Design your form and then select the option to add it to your Library. Enter the layout’s name and format and choose Save to My WordPress Layouts so that it can be used on other websites. Click Upload to My WP Layouts.
Go to the site you wish to upload your page to. Install WP Layouts cre, eat an article or courier, and launch the Library that is designed for this kind of builder. You’ll be able to see all the layouts that you’ve made to use that builder. By hovering over the form, it will scroll the design inside its window, allowing you to view the whole structure. Select the format you’d like to use to import, and WP Layouts will import the configuration. This is the screen for libraries for Divi.
Utilizing WP Layouts in conjunction with Gutenberg
Here’s an example using Gutenberg. Design your layout and then choose Export to WordPress Layouts within the bottom right corner of the screen under Import/Export under the Document tab. Please save it to the WordPress Layouts cloud.
Give the layout an appropriate name to you, and then click to export.
In order to import your Gutenberg layout, you must create an article or page and choose import from the WP Layouts in the Export/Import section. The form will show up within Your WP Layouts modal, where you can hover over it and watch the layout scroll in the window. You can then click on the layout to upload it onto the Gutenberg page.
