Cloning lets you use an existing channel as the basis for a new channel. When you clone an existing channel, all sections of the Create channel page are populated with the data from the cloned channel, except for the following:
-
The input sections. These sections are always empty in the cloned channel.
-
The tags. There are no tags in the cloned channel.
You can edit the existing fields and complete the empty fields as needed.
You can clone a channel that is in the Channels list. (You can also clone a channel after choosing Create channel; for more information, see Creating a channel from a template.)
