What the author says it does

Try it out on your free dummy site: Click here => https://tastewp.com/plugins/copy-delete-posts.

(this trick works for all plugins in the WP repo – just replace “wordpress” with “tastewp” in the URL)

Massively increase your WordPress productivity!

Copy Page plugin makes it super-easy to duplicate pages or copy posts – and delete them again!

And why is it handy to duplicate pages? Here are just some of the use cases:

  • Duplicate pages to make short work of using again the same elements you repeatedly use (e.g. text paragraphs, images, video, featured image, etc.)
  • Create a variation of a page or post fast to modify it and compare side by side (for yourself, your client or company)
  • Create one perfect set of page templates and then re-use them for different projects, clients or products
  • Apply a facelift to a specific page but keep the older version in case you want to switch back to it anytime
  • Make a “holiday special” page template and use it for different holidays with respective adjustments
  • Create duplicates for pages used in page builders with their custom settings

You can as well run a load-test on your server by duplicating as much as 1,000 pages, and track how the server behaves. Copy Page plugin also makes it super-easy for you to bulk-delete pages and posts whenever you feel it’s time for a clean-up!

How to use it

The opening of the plugin's own description. The full text, installation notes and changelog are on its WordPress.org page.

Questions the author answers

It seems the post deletion process doesn’t work. Why?

If you are trying to delete posts and it doesn’t work try to append your wp-config.php with this line of code:

define(‘ALTERNATE_WP_CRON’, true);

Does it work if you try to delete posts then? If not, please reach out to us in the support forum.

When I copy post or copy page, why is title of the duplicate not the same?

If you copy posts or copy pages and want the new versions to have exactly the same title as the original post, make sure that prefix and suffix fields are blank in the “What name(s) should the copies have?” section of the Copy Delete Posts plugin area in the WordPress Dashboard.

If I duplicate posts, how do I know what their original page was?

It can be a challenge to keep track of the original content if you duplicate posts. To prevent this we suggest to not leave the prefix and suffix fields empty (which define the name of the new posts) if you duplicate posts.

Can I limit who can duplicate posts on my site?

By default only Administrators can access the plugin and copy posts or copy pages. You can extend these permissions to other user roles by going to the section “Other options”, and then tick boxes next to WP user roles that you want to give permission to. Then also those roles can duplicate posts (or delete posts).

I want to duplicate posts *only*, i.e. not duplicate pages. Is that possible?

You can limit the features to duplicate posts only by going to the “Other options” – section and select where it says “Content types which can be copied” to only copy posts, copy pages, copy custom posts or all of these.

How can I make bulk copies?

If you want to duplicate posts en masse, select the copy posts option in the “Bulk actions” menu. You’ll see the lightbox asking you to specify your duplicate post options (i.e. which elements to copy).

Latest changelog entry

  • Tested up to WordPress 7.1.2

Where this page's numbers come from

Read from the WordPress.org plugin API on , when WordPress 7.1.4 was the current release. WordPress.org rounds active installs into buckets. These are the directory's figures, not my verdict, and I haven't tested this plugin.
