INTRODUCTION

Quick Node Clone is meant as a way in Drupal 8 to clone nodes. It currently supports cloning of most field types including Inline Entity Form and Field Collection.

The module adds a "Clone" tab to a node. When clicked, a new node is created and fields from the previous node are populated into the new fields.

This may be duplicate work of Node Clone, but as of this writing (1/7/16) they don't have a D8 version and this code was created for a project from scratch in a reusable manner. This is meant to support different field types than core easily.

Future TODO: Support more than just nodes! With the recent improvements from 1/7 it could be expanded to all Content Entities fairly easily. This will likely be in its own properly named module with a better method for adding a UI to other content entities.

REQUIREMENTS

This module requires the following modules:

  • Node

INSTALLATION

  • Install as you would normally install a contributed Drupal module.
  • Visit a node view page to clone it with the Clone tab.
