Biggest opportunity: Swap “backup” and “clone post” for “duplicate” and “states”. “backup” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “duplicate” sits at #5 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “clone post” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #12. “states” sits at #11 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

12%

of downloads still active

At least 60K of 505.5K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Backup plugin keeps 1.6%, across 284 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Backup plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

This plugin shipped 8 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

    Junk plugin that adds surreptitious ADV panels to your dashboard promoting their other products. Deleted.

    I rarely write reviews, but this plugin truly deserves it. WP Duplicate Page is one of those tools that immediately changes the way you work with WordPress. What used to take minutes now takes seconds. Creating multiple pages, duplicating layouts, or building structured content across languages becomes effortless. The real strength of this plugin is its simplicity. No unnecessary complexity, no confusing settings. You install it, and it just works exactly as expected. The duplication is clean, reliable, and perfectly preserves page structure, including complex elements like galleries and layouts. In my case, it has been incredibly useful for building a multilingual website and managing multiple sections with consistent design. It saved me a significant amount of time and eliminated repetitive work almost entirely. If you work with WordPress regularly, this is not just a useful plugin, it is essential. Highly recommended.

    Perfect, I agree with Charlie Merland @caercam. No overkill functions, no overkill user interface. Simple and clean options which user roles can duplicate and which post types will have the “duplicate” link. Duplicates also posts that are edited with Elementor, with all styles without hustle. So you can start the Elementor editor and all is there like you would edit your original post! Nice! Thanks for that. No need for overloaded plugins. This simply does it´s job and is a clean solution! Great! 🙂

    Best solution out there for duplicating posts. Period. Does exactly what it needs to do, nothing less, nothing more. It’s getting hard to find plugins that don’t add loads of unnecessary options and settings and features and whatever. This one does not. It just duplicates posts. Thanks for that.
