Description

Sometimes happiness is about small things. What about being able to prepare a new version of your content while its original is still online?

Anticipating and preparing the next version of an article which is already online can quickly become a tedious and risky task. Indeed, most publishers will create a brand new post, fill it in, publish it once it’s ready and finally disable the original article.

Basic features:

  • creation of a new version of an article in 1 click;
  • direct access to other pending versions of an article;
  • update of an article to its new version in 1 click.

Advanced features:

  • duplication of an article into a brand new independent copy;
  • hookable 😉
  • works with any post types, custom or not
  • makes coffee (we’re still working on that)

About

Hooks

pnv_duplicata_status_args
Filter that can be used to alter arguments sent to ‘register_post_status’.
Default arguments are:

  • label => Duplicate

  • public => false

  • exclude_from_search => true

  • show_in_admin_all_list => false

  • label_count =>

    • singular => Duplicate (%s)
    • plural => Duplicates (%s)

pnv_erase_content_destination
Filter that can be used to alter $destination array before ‘wp_insert_post’ get called when a copy, duplication or replacement is triggered
This filter sends 3 other parameters: the $source object (WP_Post instance) and the $copy boolean

pnv_filtered_metas
Filter that can be used to alter meta names that must not be treated while a post is copied, duplicated or replaced
The default metas is an array with these values:

  • _pnv_duplicata => true

pnv_erase_content
Action triggered at the end of a copy, duplication or replacement.
This action sends 4 parameters:

  • the $source object (WP_Post instance)

  • the $destination array (represents post data)

  • the $copy boolean

  • the destination’s post ID

pnv_action_url_redirect
Filter that can be used to alter redirect URL after a copy, duplication or replacement.
The default value is the admin edit page for the destination post (the one that has been saved)
This filter sends 1 other parameter: the destination post ID
pnv_{column_name}_column_value
Filter that can be used to alter the value displayed on the posts list, in the ‘{column_name}’ column.
This plugin comes with only one custom column for now, ‘duplicata’, so {column_name} will always be ‘duplicata’, and the default value will be the count of duplicates for the post.
This filter sends 1 other parameter: the post ID
