copy existing page to create new page help

I found this addon viewtopic.php?f=8&t=11545 which looks a really good feature so thought would try it on the demo couchcms site I made ages ago but it's not working for some reason, I don't see the Copy to New and Add new buttons on the page I made called copy-page.php

I followed the instructions on the link and activated it and put copy-page.php in the copy-to-new/config.php file and also visited the page while logged in as super admin. Not sure what I have missed

All I see when visit the page in the admin side is advanced settings at the top right and the page title input field and the editable regions to add/edit text

Well, the addon should work well with v2.2.
That said, I noticed you mentioned -
I don't see the Copy to New and Add new buttons on the page

Now, the "Add New" button appears by default for all template (i.e. has nothing to do with the addon in question).
If it is not showing up, perhaps some other code (maybe in your kfunctions.php file) is at work?
Please check.

Also try disabling the addon and see if the "Add New" button shows up.

I checked the kfunctions.php code inside the addons folder and has the following in it

Code: Select all
<?php
if ( !defined('K_COUCH_DIR') ) die(); // cannot be loaded directly

require_once( K_COUCH_DIR.'addons/cart/cart.php' );
require_once( K_COUCH_DIR.'addons/cart/session.php' );
require_once( K_COUCH_DIR.'addons/data-bound-form/data-bound-form.php' );
require_once( K_COUCH_DIR.'addons/recaptcha/recaptcha.php' );
require_once( K_COUCH_DIR.'addons/simple-access-control/simple-access-control.php' );
//require_once( K_COUCH_DIR.'addons/inline/inline.php' );
//require_once( K_COUCH_DIR.'addons/extended/extended-folders.php' );
//require_once( K_COUCH_DIR.'addons/extended/extended-comments.php' );
require_once( K_COUCH_DIR.'addons/extended/extended-users.php' );
//require_once( K_COUCH_DIR.'addons/routes/routes.php' );
//require_once( K_COUCH_DIR.'addons/jcropthumb/jcropthumb.php' );
require_once( K_COUCH_DIR.'addons/copy-to-new/copy-to-new.php' );

class MyEvent{
    function start_date( $field ){
        global $FUNCS;
        
        $start_date = trim($field->get_data());
        if( !preg_match('/(?:19|20)\d\d-(?:0[1-9]|1[012])-(?:0[1-9]|[12][0-9]|3[01])/', $start_date ) ){
            return KFuncs::raise_error( "Incorrect date format" );
        }
        
        // Set publish_date to value of this field
        $f = &$field->siblings[3];
        $publish_date = trim( $f->get_data() );
        if( $publish_date != '0000-00-00 00:00:00' ){
            $start_date = $FUNCS->make_date( $start_date );
            if( $publish_date != $start_date ){
                $f->store_posted_changes( $start_date );
            }
        }
        unset( $f );
        
        return true;
    }
}


I commented the copy add on line out so should of disabled it but still the same, below is the copy-page.php code if it helps

Code: Select all
<?php require_once( 'cms/cms.php' ); ?>

<cms:template title='Copy Page' order='13'>

<cms:editable name='first_column_section' label='First Column Section' type='group' collapsed='1' order='1' />

<cms:editable name='second_column_section' label='Second Column Section' type='group' collapsed='1' order='2' />
<cms:editable type='richtext' toolbar='full' name='second_column_text' label='Second Column Text' group='second_column_section' />
    
<cms:editable name='third_column_section' label='Third Column Section' type='group' collapsed='1' order='3' />

Thanks.

Code: Select all
<cms:template title='Copy Page' order='13'>

As can be seen from your code above, the template is non-clonable.
The 'copy' (and also the 'add') facility will work only with clonable templates (because, of course, then there would be pages to subject to these actions).

Please make the template clonable and you should be able to see the addon in action.
