    • Support for template duplication.

Overview

DuplicateEntries plugin allows you to duplicate Movable Type entries, pages, and templates from MT CMS screen. That is, you can create new copies of the original items. The duplicated items will be complete copies of the original items, except duplicated entries and pages will be created as ''draft'' items.

This plugin is designed to work with Movable Type version 4.0 or later.

How To Install

  • Download and extract DuplicateEntries-
    <version>
    .zip file.
  • Upload or copy the "DuplicateEntries" directory into your "plugins" directory.
  • After proper installation, you will find "DuplicateEntries" plugin listed on the "System Plugin Settings" screen.

Usage

If you want to duplicate entries:

  • First, go to "Manage Entries" screen (select "Entries" from "Manage" dropdown list).
  • Select one or more items you want to duplicate.
  • Select "Duplicate Entries" from "More action..." dropdown list, and click "Go" button.
  • (Probably) you'll find duplicated (and newly created) entries in "Manage Entries" screen.

Pages and templates can be duplicated in the same way.

REPOST:

If I deleted existing custom fields in mt43 and want to edit existing entries I get in trouble of the missing fields. Wondering why that happens. Does you have a solution?

This plugin is just what I have been looking for but unfortunately it is not working for me. The "Duplicate entries" selection appears in more actions but no duplicate entry appears when I use it. I am using the latest version of MT. The plugin is in my plugins directory but it does not appear on the plugins page. I would appreciate any guidance.
