Access your site's Control Panel and click the "..." menu next to the site you want to duplicate. Select "Duplicate Site" to create a copy. The duplicated site appears first in your Account Panel with "(Copy)" added to the title.

What Gets Copied:

  • Pages, sections, layouts, and blocks
  • Collection items
  • Site title and logo
  • Site languages and regional settings
  • Style settings and template
  • Text content
  • Code injection settings

What Doesn't Transfer:

  • Domain subscriptions
  • Email campaigns
  • Audio files
  • Blog comments
  • Stock images
  • Sales data and settings
  • Third-party integrations
  • Analytics and billing info
  • Contributor permissions

Important Notes:

  • Sites with over 100 pages cannot be duplicated
  • Developer Platform sites, Parking Pages, and suspended sites are ineligible
  • The duplicate starts as a free trial site
  • Changes to copied site don't sync with original
  • Member Sites features are disabled in the duplicate

For Member Sites:

  1. Member pages move to "unlinked" section in duplicate
  2. Subscribe to appropriate plan to restore Member Sites
  3. Manually move pages from unlinked to Member Sites section

The duplication process time varies based on site content volume. URL slugs for collection items will have additional characters - update manually if needed.

Basic authors transfer but must be manually reassigned to collection items in the duplicate site.
