# How to Duplicate Post/Pages/CPT/Products at Bulk in WordPress?

## Key Takeaways

- Nexter Extension (free) adds a Duplicate Post feature that duplicates Posts, Pages, CPT, and Products in bulk from the WordPress dashboard.
- Duplicate Post settings include Who Can Duplicate, Post Author, Post Date, Post Status, Postfix Text, and Slug Text.
- The duplication popup lets the user enter the number of duplicate copies and then creates that many copies with the predefined Postfix Text in the title and Slug Text in the slug.

The ability to easily duplicate content such as posts, pages, custom post types (CPT), products etc, in WordPress can be a useful tool for any WordPress user. Whether you’re running a blog or developing a website, there are times when you need to create duplicate copies of existing content. This can save time by avoiding the need to rewrite them from scratch. 

While WordPress users sometimes do need this duplication feature, but it is not something required on a very frequent basis. In most cases, you will have to use 3rd party plugins in order to duplicate your content in WordPress. So just for this, adding another one to the long list of plugins can add up to the website load time.

You can easily balance this out with the [Nexter Extension (free) plugin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/nexter-extension/), which has many features built-in, and one of them is to allow users easily duplicate content in bulk.

## Why do you want to Duplicate Posts/Pages/CPT/Products WordPress?

As a WordPress user, at times, you need to duplicate your existing content to improve your productivity. 

For example, you might have created a custom structure for your blog posts or pages that you want to replicate to another post or page.

Now, you can manually copy and paste everything and then change the content, but to speed up the process, you can just duplicate the post or page and then make the necessary changes.

## How to Duplicate Content with the Nexter Extension? 

To duplicate content with the Nexter theme from the WordPress dashboard, go to **Nexter **>** Extensions** > **Utilities**.

Then go to the **Duplicate Post **section and enable the toggle, after that click on the gear icon (⚙).

It will open the **Duplicate Post** popup; here, you’ll find some options.

**Who Can Duplicate **- Here, you can set the user permission who can duplicate the content, all users or the original author only.

**Post Author** - From here, you can choose who to attribute the duplicated content to, the current user or the original author.

**Post Date** - You can duplicate the time from the original post/content or can set it to the current time.

**Post Status** - You can also predefine the duplicated content post status from here.

**Postfix Text** - From here, you can add a custom postfix text for your duplicate content title.

**Slug Text** - This will allow you to add custom text as a suffix in the slug.

After choosing your settings, click the **Save** button.

Now if you go to your post, page, CPT or product page, once you hover over an item, you’ll get an option called **Duplicate Post**.

Clicking on that, you’ll get a popup where you have to mention the number of duplicate copies you want and then click on the **Duplicate** button.

Then it will make an equivalent number of copies with your predefined Postfix Text in the title and Slug Text in the slug.

Following this process, you can easily duplicate Posts/Pages/CPT/Products in bulk.

## Frequently Asked Questions

**Q: Why duplicate posts, pages, CPTs, or products in bulk instead of rebuilding them from scratch?**
A: Bulk duplication saves time when you already have a structure you want to reuse. The page calls out cases like blog posts, pages, custom post types, and products where you may want an existing layout copied and then edited instead of manually recreating everything. That matters most when the content structure is already right and only the details need changing.

**Q: What should I do if I want to duplicate content without adding another WordPress plugin?**
A: Nexter Extension is the built-in option the page points to for this job. It is described as a free plugin with many features built in, including bulk content duplication, which helps avoid stacking yet another third-party plugin on top of your site. That is the main tradeoff here: fewer plugins usually means less load-time overhead.

**Q: Can I duplicate products and custom post types as well as regular posts and pages?**
A: The tutorial says duplication works for posts, pages, custom post types (CPT), and products. That makes it useful when your site mixes standard blog content with structured content or WooCommerce items. The practical benefit is consistency: once you have a template-like item set up correctly, you can copy it in bulk and then adjust the details instead of starting over each time.

**Q: What settings matter most when duplicating WordPress content in bulk?**
A: The most important controls are Who Can Duplicate, Post Author, Post Date, Post Status, Postfix Text, and Slug Text. Those options decide who has permission to duplicate items, whether the copy keeps the original author or current user, whether it keeps the original time or uses the current time, and how the title and slug are labeled. That last part helps keep duplicates easy to identify.

**Q: What happens after I set up duplication and choose how many copies to make?**
A: Hovering over a post, page, CPT, or product shows a Duplicate Post option. After entering the number of copies and clicking Duplicate, WordPress creates that many copies using your saved settings for postfix text and slug text. The result is a batch of equivalent items that already follow your naming pattern, which reduces cleanup work after duplication.
