Great Elementor Page and Template Duplication

By brandedpixel on April 14, 2025

We like this plugin for duplicating pages created in a page or site builder, like Elementor.

Fast and easy to use for most clients, we only wish the 'Republish' functionality was better explained in the dashboard.

Works very well and good amount of settings to change

Does not work for portfolio pages

By Ron Fredericks (ronf) on January 16, 2025

My plugin offers portfolio pages in addition to posts and pages. This plugin does not offer duplication option from portfolio pages. Although it appears to work for posts and pages.

Very useful

A must have plugin

By yodastudio on November 19, 2024

This plugin is very easy to use and extremely useful. I can't understand why it's not included in the WordPress basic functions.

Works just fine.

By kianmovahhed on November 13, 2024

Does the job. Thank you.

Very useful Plugin

By stephanknorr on October 17, 2024

I've been using the plugin for some time now and I'm thrilled - it's simply a great help!

But I have one small feature request:
The deletion of references to the originals in bulk mode!

Thanks for the plugin 👍
