  Is there any way to copy a post in it’s entirety rather than the post box lines alone?

  I regularly use various personal “template” posts and although I am able to copy+paste the lines into a new post, I’m also interested in the formatting, title, picture(s), categories, etc… as well – and in one button? :)

  A copy post command under the “Quick Edit” would be ideal.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  No there is not. To maintain any formatting, copy and paste from the HTML tab in the editor. That will bring all the formatting along.

  Thanks – yes I do appreciate the ability to copy+paste and keep all formatting. Just hoping to see a copy post option that reduces the work to one click… one day! :)

  What I did when I needed some look alike templates was to make several for the different use and then save the masters in draft mode and then just went back and did a copy and paste – yes a bit clunky but no worse than many word processing programs and worked fine for me.

  You can do this using Windows Live Writer or a similar offline blogging program.
