Wondering how to duplicate a page in Elementor without rebuilding everything from scratch? Whether you're designing a new section or managing multiple WordPress pages, duplicating a page can save valuable time. This guide covers the best methods to copy, clone, or reuse page layouts in Elementor efficiently.
Use the Elementor Template Method
The easiest and most flexible way to duplicate a page is by saving it as a template and inserting it into a new page.
- Open the page in Elementor that you want to duplicate.
- Click the arrow next to the Update button at the bottom panel.
- Choose Save as Template.
- Give your template a name and click Save.
- Create a new page and open it with Elementor.
- Click the folder icon to access the Elementor library.
- Go to My Templates and insert the saved template.
Manually Copy Page Content in Elementor
If you prefer to copy just specific sections instead of the entire page layout, manual duplication might suit you better.
- Open the source page in the Elementor editor.
- Right-click on a section, column, or widget and choose Copy.
- Open the destination page in Elementor.
- Right-click where you want to paste and select Paste.
Duplicate Elementor Page Using a Plugin
You can also use WordPress plugins designed to clone pages efficiently. This method works well if you want to duplicate the entire page, including settings.
Recommended plugin: Duplicate Page
- Install and activate the Duplicate Page plugin from the WordPress plugin directory.
- Go to Pages > All Pages.
- Hover over the page you want to clone and click Duplicate.
- Edit the new copy using Elementor.
Export and Import Elementor Templates
For transferring pages between websites or saving for later use, Elementor’s export/import feature is a perfect solution.
- Open the source page in Elementor and save it as a template.
- Go to Templates > Saved Templates in your WordPress dashboard.
- Click Export Template.
- On another website, go to Templates > Import Templates.
- Upload the .json file and insert the template into a page.
Recreate Page Using Global Widgets
Elementor's global widgets allow you to reuse specific widgets across different pages while maintaining centralized control.
- Convert a widget into a global widget by right-clicking and choosing Save as Global.
- Use the global widget on any other page by dragging it from the Elementor panel.
- Any updates to the global widget will reflect everywhere it’s used.
Troubleshooting Common Duplication Issues
Sometimes, duplicating a page doesn’t work as expected. Here are common issues and how to resolve them:
Blank page after duplicating. Clear your browser and WordPress cache, and check for plugin conflicts.
Styles not appearing correctly. Re-save Elementor settings via Elementor > Tools > Regenerate CSS.
Widgets not loading. Ensure Elementor and all plugins are updated and compatible.
