General Settings

Overview

The Settings view holds what applies to the whole site, whatever profile is used. Open RB Plugins → Duplicate Post → Settings. It has six tabs: Access, Buttons, Content types, Multisite, WP-CLI and AI. Changes are saved with Save settings.

What a copy contains is set per profile in the Copy view — see Profiles and the copy dialog. Auto copy, Cleanup, the Log and Integrations are views of their own.

Access

Who may copy: administrators, editors, authors, contributors, subscribers. A user can only ever copy posts they are allowed to edit — authors their own, editors everyone’s — and only content types they may create.

Buttons

Show the Copy button on — posts and pages lists, the block editor, edit screens of the classic editor, the admin bar, the bulk actions menu.
Link to the original — “Copy of …” next to a copy’s title in the lists, and the Copy history box on the edit screen of a copy.
Rewrite & Republish — offer Rewrite & Republish for published posts.
Menu — move the plugin’s screen under Tools.

Content types

What can be copied: posts, pages, custom post types. (PRO) Never copy these custom post types — the ticked types get no Copy button and cannot be copied in any other way either.

Multisite (PRO)

On a WordPress network, posts can be copied from one site to another: the copy dialog gets a Site choice, WP-CLI takes --target-blog, and Auto copy rules get a site.

Allow copying posts to other sites of the network.
Media of a copy on another site — copy the media files to the target site, or reuse the source site’s media (for networks with shared uploads). Copy media files on the same site too gives a copy on the same site its own image files instead of reusing the original’s.
Images in the text of a copy on another site — copy them to the target site and update the text, or keep the source site’s addresses.

On a single site these options are shown switched off.

WP-CLI

Ready-to-copy commands for this site — see WP-CLI.

AI (PRO)

The AI provider and its key — see AI.
