Dear Sir/Madam,

I tried some 3rd post duplicator plugins but most of them can only duplicate default WP post items like title, slug, etc. Do you have any recommended plugins that can duplicate the toolset custom post?

Best regards,

Kelvin

Hello Kelvin and thank you for contacting Toolset support.

Honestly, I am not aware of any duplication plugin that offers Toolset support. But, I am pretty sure all the popular plugins do duplicate custom fields values too. For example:
- https://wordpress.org/plugins/duplicate-page/
- https://wordpress.org/plugins/duplicate-post/
- https://wordpress.org/plugins/post-duplicator/

However, you can build a duplication feature only with Toolset Forms. But, it has to be done on the frontend. The trick is to pass the ID of the current post to the form, and make the form a create post form instead of an edit form. For example:

[cred_form form="Create Car" post="145"]

But the form will need to hold all the custom fields, taxonomies, and default fields that you want to copy to the duplicate post.

However, none of the above is guaranteed to duplicate Toolset relationships. We can discuss that later if you need it.

I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any questions.
