Samadhan Post Clone and Convert is a lightweight WordPress utility for cloning and converting Posts and Pages.
The plugin provides two distinct operations:
- Clone — creates a new Post or Page based on an existing Post or Page while keeping the original unchanged.
- Convert — changes an existing Post into a Page or a Page into a Post without creating a duplicate.
The plugin is designed around a focused Post and Page workflow and does not attempt to be a general-purpose content migration or duplication system.
Core Scope
Version 2.0 focuses specifically on WordPress Posts and Pages.
Cloning
The plugin supports cloning between Posts and Pages:
- Post → Post
- Post → Page
- Page → Post
- Page → Page
When cloning, the original item remains unchanged and a new item is created as a draft.
Conversion
The plugin supports conversion between Posts and Pages:
- Post → Page
- Page → Post
When converting, the existing item changes its post type. No duplicate item is created.
Clone vs Convert
Clone
Clone creates a new item while preserving the original.
Example:
Post #123 → Clone as Page
The original Post remains unchanged and a new Page is created.
Convert
Convert changes the existing item’s post type.
Example:
Post #123 → Convert to Page
The existing Post becomes a Page. No second item is created.
Content Handling
The plugin is designed to preserve relevant content and compatible dependencies when cloning Posts and Pages.
Depending on the operation and destination type, the plugin handles data such as:
- Post title
- Post content
