Duplicate this Post

Hi,
Love this plugin, thanks Beaver Builder Team.
I know we can duplicate a page and also use Beaver Builder within a post which is awesome.
Can we duplicate a post?
When I open a post created with Beaver Builder and go to “tools -> duplicate this page” it duplicates the post as a page not as an additional post.
I would like to duplicate the post as another post so I can make use of the category sorting that posts allow.
Let me know if this is possible.
Thanks

Hey Chris,

Good to hear you’re loving the plugin! I just tried it on my local dev and duplicating a post works just fine, i.e., it duplicates it as a Post and not as a Page. Do you have any plugins activated that could be causing the issue? Could you try deactivating all plugins except BB and see if that fixes it? You can then reactivate each one to see which is causing the issue.

Let us know how it goes! :slight_smile:

Hi Ben,
I de-activated all plugins except for Beaver Builder and issue is still there.
Updated Beaver and can see that the duplicate page text now reads ‘duplicate layout’ I hoped this would fix the issue but still the same.

Hey Chris,

That’s really weird. What theme are you using? Can you try switching to one of the free TwentyX themes real quick and see if you get the same thing? If you do, we might need temp admin access to your site so we can check further. :slight_smile:

Hi Ben,
2015 theme does the same, I am using Genesis with Dynamik WB.
I have got around it by saving page as a template rather than using the ‘duplicate this layout’ feature.

Hey Chris,

That should work, but it shouldn’t duplicate a post as a page. :slight_smile: We can check further if you want. We just need access to your site’s backend to do so. You can post it here using the private reply option below. :slight_smile:

Hi Ben,
No that is fine, the saving as a template is no hassle.
Thanks for your quick responses, very much appreciated.

No worries at all! Enjoy BB! :slight_smile:
