Post Duplicator Plugins for WordPress
For many website owners, developers, and content creators, being able to copy an existing post is a valuable tool. We have tried, used, tested and recommend the following post duplicator tools.
Both these recommended plug-ins are well supported, which is important when navigating the slew of free plugins.
Yoast Duplicate Post by Yoast
https://wordpress.org/plugins/post-duplicator/
Yoast Duplicate Post is a super charged post duplicator and still free. What sets this apart is that you can copy a page / post in many different places (not just the list). This is a really nice feature if, like me, you have lots of pages that you want to use a starting point. Sometimes, it’s not easy to find the post/page in the list view.
Additionally, it offer many different settings as well as the ability to limit post duplication by site role.
All in all, Yoast is our go-to post duplicator. We use it on Babadoodle.com, WhatDesigners.com, and any new site.
