🚀 Quick Clone Wordpress Plugin

A simple, secure, one-click duplication utility for WordPress Posts, Pages, and Custom Post Types.

Developed by: Nitish Verma (https://help.nitishverma.com/)

🎯 Overview

The Quick Clone plugin significantly boosts content creation productivity by enabling users to create a perfect copy of any post type instantly. It adheres strictly to WordPress coding and security standards.

✨ Features

  • Instant Duplication: Clones Posts, Pages, and all registered Custom Post Types via a single click in the list view.
  • Comprehensive Cloning: Copies content, featured image, post status (to Draft), taxonomies (Categories/Tags), and all associated Post Meta (Custom Fields).
  • Security Focused: Utilizes WordPress Nonce verification (wp_verify_nonce) and capability checks (current_user_can) to ensure secure operation.
  • Lightweight: No separate admin screens or complex settings—it works directly via WordPress actions and filters.
